In depth
Verdict
In the opener, Dressed To Dance gets the call ahead of possibly Stargazy and Tokyo Jo. Dressed To Dance has been getting his act together of late, and his second at Kempton last time to Prince Of Charm reads very well in the context of this race and he looks set to go well today. A drop back in trip might see Intersky Sports in a better light from his last two runs as he had shown promise before and there is also no doubt that Stargazy would hold claims if managing to recapture her summer form over sprint distances. Much as Tokyo Jo has been competing in sellers and claimers of late, the form is solid enough in a modest event to allow her some thought, while Trickle is lightly raced enough to be open to some improvement. Overall, though, we will stick with Dressed To Dance.
