Stays this trip well and positive that she is better on the AW than turf. Form has taken a dip since winning over 1m4f at Wolverhampton in February, however, and still looks weighted to the hilt from 2lb higher than her last winning mark.

Loves this course and has been progressive since racing with the application of a visor. Shot up 20lb in the handicap as a result of his labours but has answered every question asked of him lately; chasing a hat-trick of C&D wins and cannot be discounted in his current frame of mind.

Best form has been recorded at Wolverhampton but proved he handles this surface with a solid effort over C&D on his penultimate start. Personal best is required but is in good heart and is well worth a check in the betting.

Formerly trained by Sir Michael Stoute, he is unexposed on the AW but has already posted form that suggests he can hold his own at this level. Yet to race beyond 10f but today's extra furlong may also help. May be worth chancing in this company.

Well handicapped on the pick of his efforts but has something to prove regarding the trip. His personal record at this course also leaves something to be desired.

Needs a strong pace to be seen at his best but acts well on the Polytrack surface and has no issues with the trip. Back on a handy mark, so may be good value for a place at least.

Tried over hurdles after joining his current yard but made little impact. Much the same since reverting to the Flat and hard to fancy on recent evidence.

Showed promise when winning over 10f at Newmarket last summer but not much joy gained from seven subsequent outings. His recent return from a break did little to suggest he is thriving just now and others make more appeal despite his attractive handicap mark.

A long way out of the weights and given that he is 0-from-25 up to press in low-grade races, and has made little impact in three previous visits to this course, safe to assume others will readily take his measure on these terms.

Forecasts

Rail Dancer (2/1), Boychick (9/4), Transmitting (7/2), Solveig's Song (16/1), Tatawu (16/1), Dark Phantom (20/1), Rightway (20/1), Arrowzone (20/1), Fast Play (33/1), Sevilla (66/1)

Verdict

A chance is taken that RAIL DANCER still has a little more to offer back at a track that has already served him well and will be hard to resist if supported in the betting in his bid to land a hat-trick of C&D wins on the bounce. Transmitting makes his debut for a new yard, is going the right way and is a solid alternative, while Boychick is another that is holding his form well and is another to monitor closely in the betting. Solveig's Song may be the best of the rest.
