Verdict

Imperial Dancer has been found wanting at this level before but did show his battling qualities when beating Island House at Goodwood in a Listed contest. Carnival Dancer was slightly disappointing on his reappearance but would rate a danger to all if he could recapture his smart form of last season and do not dismiss the chances of Exaltation who has been highly tried throughout his career.
