City Of Poets has impressively notched a maiden/novice stakes double and he warrants plenty of respect on handicap debut with Ryan Moore booked to ride, but DANCE IN THE STORM shades the verdict. The first-time hood (worn today) certainly did no harm when she fairly bolted up on her handicap bow over C&D three weeks ago and a subsequent 7lb rise in the ratings is fair. Gilet and Mudbir both cut back a furlong following pleasing enough efforts, particularly the former at Newbury, and they complete the shortlist. |
This may go to DANCE IN THE STORM, who won well on her turf debut over C&D last time and has the profile of a filly very much open to further improvement. She can defy a 7lb rise. Lightly-raced City Of Poets is two from three and, off a fair enough opening mark, may be next best. Gilet can take minr honours ahead of Mudbir. |

Bright start to career last summer but not gone on since though it's possible to make excuses for all three defeats, including with 1m possibly too far latest; others have less to prove. |

Down the field back from three months off in top handicap at Ascot latest; previous 7f and (especially) 1m Meydan form gives him an each-way squeak. |
