DASHING DICK (10) signed off the last campaign with a victory in this race. Arrives now with a much better handicap and off a pair of runner-up efforts at Leicester is poised for a big performance. STAR CHORUS (1) was able to take advantage of a tumbling rating when scoring by 0.75L at Kempton (1200m) four weeks ago. Could go well again with confidence buoyed. WODAO (7) saw his win streak come to an end on heavy going Monday trying 1000m. Reversion to this trip could see him bouncing back. HARRY'S HALO (9) registered a 1L success on penultimate attempt at Leicester (1200m). Disappointing effort since so revisiting an undulating track might help.
