OAKLEY DANCER (NAP) missed out on a hat-trick at Leicester on her handicap debut but that was her first outing since May and she looks up to scoring off her current mark with that run under her belt. Walk Of No Shame is another likely to improve for a recent outing having placed at Warwick without threatening while Ravenscar has won off today’s mark in the past and is preferred to Shelikesthelights.
