In The Cove (3/1), Scheme (3/1), Geizy Teizy (7/2), First Response (7/1), Blindingly (15/2), Robotique Danseur (9/1), Fortissimo (18/1)

A tight race on official BHA handicap ratings with just 3lb separating the entire field (all rated 72-75). However, it is the top-rated filly ROBOTIQUE DANSEUR who makes most appeal for the locally-based John Dance. She was a striking C&D debut winner before bombing out in testing conditions at Haydock. Given time to recover from those exertions, she posted an encouraging comeback run here three weeks ago when a clear second best to the John Gosden-trained New Angel. With the Richard Hannon-trained In The Cove feared most, she rates as a confident selection electing to take the classified stakes route rather than slipping straight into a Class 5 (0-75) handicap.
