It could be a case of a rerun of the recent Ascot handicap in which DANCE AND GLANCE narrowly outpointed All In You. They've both gone up 4 lb, so meet on identical terms and while there is a case for thinking that the runner-up, who was making his seasonal reappearance that day, can exact his revenge here, Dance And Glance displayed a likeable attitude at Ascot and that gritty determination may again prove to be the difference. Hot Fuss is another key player.

About The Selections
Dave Nevison
Continuance Good ground suits the five-year-old well, as does the track, and it looks possible that Continuance might be able to set his own pace here. He's an e/w pick.
Martin Dixon
All In You It was a quite remarkable effort from All In You last time out and I'm confident he's still well ahead of his mark, despite a 4lb rise since.

Race Hints
Specific Pace Hint: Hot Fuss shouldn’t be inconvenienced if looking to adopt a prominent position: Despite a suspicion the pace will be sound, those held up such as Dance And Glance usually is are still likely to have their work cut out.
Individual Price Hint: All In You traded at 10% or less of Betfair SP and 50% or less of Betfair SP on 2 of its last 3 starts.
