Verdict

This is tricky, not least as we haven't seen the majority of these for a while. PERCY'S WORD is back to the same mark as when second here last autumn so he gets a tentative vote with the Dan Skelton team going well. Samba Dancer was a big improver for this yard last autumn and it would be no shock to see him resume his progression after a break. Wewillgowithplanb is also interesting on first run for Richard Bandey, particularly if the betting vibes are strong.
