In depth
Verdict
Dalmo bids for hat-trick off the same mark as when winning a conditionals race at Towcester last week. He should be in the mix once again but STANLEY BRIDGE is just preferred. He beat subsequent winner Ben Cee Pee M over course and distance last month and is dropping down a grade for this. Copt Hill has over three lengths to find with the selection and Dynamic Drive was well beaten off today's mark last time having won here back in October. So Bazaar finished closer at Newcastle recently and could go well from the bottom of the handicap.
