Verdict
M J WOODWARD was beaten over 7f in November but won both starts over today's minimum trip either side of that. He gets the tentative vote to confirm latest running with Ryedale Dancer and follow-up. The latter finished behind a few of these over C&D last time including Sally's Swansong and Liberty Ship. Wreningham and Miss Bunter filled the places in the same race and the latter makes more appeal today as she has more scope for improvement although Absolute Fun has tumbled down the weights.
