Artisan Dancer placed in the Chester Plate last week and drops in distance with a shout, while Sportingsilvermine made a bold bid for a hat-trick when narrowly beaten last time and another good effort looks assured. However, ASSAIL did nothing but improve last year and, having given the strong impression this extra yardage would suit when scoring over 1m4f at both at Ascot and Kempton, David Simcock's charge gets the vote. |
Though he was foiled in his hat trick bid at Chester SPORTINGSILVERMINE pulled clear with a heavily punted rival from a shrewd yard and probably kicked on too soon that day. A 3lb rise looks lenient and with the promise of more to come up in trip he can make amends. Assail has won 3 of his 6 UK starts and the form of his latest victory has been boosted since. He should be fit after a winter spin in Dubai and looks the greatest threat ahead of veteran strong stayer Artisan Dancer who will likely make it a decent test. |
