        Verdict

        There are a couple of interesting newcomers on show here, and it may just be worth taking a chance that Let's Dance Again can produce the goods, with Iskander, Rise, Jerome and Shadowland all worthy of consideration too. Iskander produced a good effort to finish second behind Big Bradford in a similar event at Carlisle last time, and Kevin Ryan's colt would surely go close if reproducing that form. Rise was not beaten far when third at Goodwood last time, and is another with claims. Shadowland is an interesting prospect on his racecourse debut. Ian Balding's Distant View colt cost $130,000 as a yearling and with Kevin Darley booked the market may prove a reliable guide as to his ability. However, Tim Easterby has his runners in great form and the Malton trainer saddles two in this, both with good claims. David Allan rides Jerome, who has shown a reasonable level of form on both starts so far, but we'll just take a chance with John Egan's mount, the newcomer Let's Dance Again. Although relatively cheaply bought, she is a half-sister by Forzando to the useful Jo Mell, and support for her in the betting would increase our confidence here.
