5.00 NEWTON ABBOT PREVIEW

Ladies Dancing enjoyed an easy time up front last time out and shirked off his opposition in good style to win a modest selling hurdle. If he is allowed to dominate and get into a rhythm over the bigger obstacles he could be hard to pass. 

SHOW'S OVER looks to have to have his optimum ground and trip today. His last two starts have been over longer trips and on slower ground and he hasn't got home. Today he has similar conditions to his run three starts back when winning very impressively at Ludlow. He looks sure to be in the shake up today. 

NO NO CARDINAL’s confidence has slowly resurfaced.  Renowned for being a weak finisher I have been impressed by the grit he's shown at the back end of his races of late. On both occasions, he has run to the line and if he is to repeat those performances today he should be there. At 5/1 he looks an appealing each-way proposition. 

Guanciale ran well last time, but has a patchy record. Golan Dancer remains a maiden after 22 starts, his first start for Jimmy Frost was promising but he may find one or two too good today.
