MYKINGDOMFORAHORSE is a solid option in this ordinary nursery. Asian Tale and Nizhoni Dancer are others worthy of consideration, while Miss Fritton is a nicely bred type that cannot be discounted as she makes her handicap debut off a reasonable mark. The last named is likely to be suited by the step up to a mile and, considering Dane O'Neill's respectable 16% strike-rate when riding for Richard Hannon, the daughter of Refuse To Bend appeals as a winner in the making. Nizhoni Dancer has made headway in each of her four previous starts - culminating with a game win at Leicester just over a month ago. The Chris Wall-trained filly has experience of this course and should not be underestimated; despite her 5lb hike in the weights. Asian Tale was impressive when she won a claimer in May but then struggled with the assessor as a result. However, she created the impression she is ready for this step up in trip when she finished a close third at Bath earlier this month, so may be good value to give credence to the old saying about top weights in nurseries. Even so, Mykingdomforahorse makes more appeal for a punt on these terms. The fitting of a visor nearly worked the oracle for him last time out and, as Darryll Holland has again been secured for the ride, the pieces are starting to fit together for this son of Fantastic Light and he is fancied to take the beating today.
