Plenty of these have been threatening a return to winning ways but Sole Danser actually got the job done at Warwick last time. But he doesn't appeal as one to follow-up given his poor strike rate and THE DARK WIZARD gets another chance in preference. He's been placed in his last three starts now but the handicapper is content to leave him on the same mark and he may take advantage in this. A handful of these took part in a sprint at Bath last month in which runner-up Mambo Spirit came out best ahead of Clear Praise but Ceelo makes more appeal after a better effort over 7f on the Turf at Lingfield last time.
