Verdict

Connections have found another good opportunity for DARK AND DANGEROUS to maintain his progress. He has gone up another 5lb for his latest victory but his most serious rival here Toola Boola has risen 4lb for a 9L defeat last time. DARK AND DANGEROUS should get the run of the race again and the willing attitude he displayed last time makes him difficult to oppose. Toola Boola has won here before. She was unlucky to meet an in form rival last time and meets another here. The handicapper has made her task that bit harder but she is in better form than a lot of this field. She would be the one to cash in if the selection should run below par. Endeavor represents a yard that do well here and it would be no surprise to see him involved in a race lacking depth.
  1. Dark And Dangerous
  2. Toola Boola
