Verdict

DASHING ROGER comes here in the form of his life, winning at Sandown before an excellent third in a strong handicap at Salisbury, and should make another bold bid up only 1 lb. Dance Fever improved again when a close third in the International Stakes here 2 weeks ago and looks an obvious threat, while course-specialist Raising Sand is in better form than his recent form figures suggest.
