Race Tip

It looked like decent maiden WILLIAM WALTON (8) finished fifth in over 1m4f at Southwell last month. Owen Burrows' son of Galileo appears to be crying out for a step up in trip and with further improvement on the cards, could prove up to defying this opening mark. There should be more to come from DASHING PANTHER (9), who goes up in grade and distance after winning comfortably over 1m5 1/2f here last time. CARDANO (3) has an excellent record on the Polytrack (3-4) and needs to be included racing off 1lb lower than when third at Southwell last start. Four-time course scorer TRADESMAN (7) could go well if ready after six months off.
