SHADOW DANCE looked rusty on his comeback at Royal Ascot and has to be worth another chance given the fine progress he made in 2023. Last year's winner Mr Curiosity is a player for his local trainer who targets this handicap. Fox Journey and C&D winner Sea King are other contenders from Newmarket to note.
