        Verdict

        Dancing Mystery, Matuza and Zowington are three against the field in another tough race to call for punters and the narrow vote is given to Dancing Mystery The selection was a fair fourth behind Little Edward last time out, this looks slightly easier and with the race sure to be run to suit he looks a value bet in an open affair. Matuza rates the main danger as he won well last time when beating Brandywell Boy but the drop in trip has to be of concern. Zowington is well weighted in his best form and with the booking of Tony Culhane catching the eye he should be noted in the market. Of the remainder Stoneacre Lad is from a yard in form and is another with place claims but consistency is not his strong point and for the winner we return to Dancing Mystery.
