Verdict

Dance In Tune who was outclassed in a class D contest last time out is taken to get back on the winning trail now he takes a drop down in grade. He is proven on the ground and he will be hard to beat with Andrew Bateman taking off a handy five pounds. Roxby Explorer showed improved form when second behind We'll Make It on fast ground last time and with conditions in his favour again he is sure to be in the shake up. Brady Boys is a course and distance winner but his best efforts have come on heavy ground and for that reason he is readily opposed. Waterspray ha shown a modicum of ability but he looks high enough in the weights for what he has actually achieved. Of the remainder Never Can Tell is on a handy mark and he is worth a cautionary look in the market.
