Verdict
Epidaurian King, Littledodayno and Avoca Dancer make most appeal in this handicap and the vote is given to AVOCA DANCER. The selection has got course and distance winning form and she did not have too much luck last time out when she encountered trouble. She has changed stables since her last run so it will be interesting to see if Gay Kelleway can get some improvement out of her. If she can, then she should take all the beating. She is a former stable-mate of Littledodayno who ran well last time when Seb Sanders got a good tune out of the horse. She is capable of getting her head in front but her high draw does temper confidence and on that basis she is passed over.The yard are very shrewd though so if there was strong market support then it could pay to take the hint. Epidaurian King is another that is not ideally drawn and this drop in trip is also against him so he looks one to take on. Gilded Cove is a course specialist so he could go well at a price, but this looks a good opportunity for Avoca Dancer who is taken to land the prize.
