        Verdict

        DANCING STAR never figured up against higher-rated horses in a conditions race when last in action but this looks more his level and he gets the speculative vote in a lottery of a sprint. Magic Strike, Desirable and Hitman are others who could go well on their comebacks while Wiley Post is preferred to stablemate Not Touch. Cultured Knight was second at Southwell on his handicap bow and Jan Steen drops in class after a third at Kempton in November. Zain Emperor is proving unreliable but also has a shout on last month’s second at Kempton.
