Verdict
Rothesay Dancer has conditions in her favour here and can prove too good for obvious favourite True Magic and Bonne De Fleur, with an honourable mention for Millinsky. Rothesay Dancer put in a woeful effort last time but we can forgive her for that and hopefully get better value for our punt here. She handles the ground well has performed well enough off this mark before to suggest she can come good. True Magic was a 6f Wolverhampton winner in March before being found out by the handicapper last time. She runs from the same mark here and although she shoudl go very well she looks vulnerable once more. Bonne De Fleur will appreciate the ground but has not won for over two years and is fully exposed, while c&d winner Millinsky can still be effective from just 1lb higher than that success and with quicker ground in her favour she could go very close again. But Rothesay Dancer can come back to form with a win.
