Verdict
Dan Skelton runs three in this with Harry partnering Taunton fifth Great Samourai but DANCILA, a decent sort on the Flat for Jim Bolger, will be a short price to follow up a debut win over hurdles at Musselburgh when having a first run for Fergal O’Brien. The mare Gaye Legacy may have more scope than King Of Brazil and Roccovango.
