Race Tip

DANCING CITY (4) bids for a hat-trick. Tackles longer trip for the first time. Landed a surprise breakthrough G1 victory winning at the Dublin Racing Festival and firmly in the mix if replicating. READIN TOMMY WRONG (16) is the choice of stable jockey Paul Townend after a narrow victory in the G1 Lawlor’s Of Naas Novice Hurdle. Attempts longer journey. GIDLEIGH PARK (8) appears the best of the British after a G2 win here on Cheltenham Trials Day. Expected to relish stamina test. SHANAGH BOB (12) is the only course and distance winner in the field. Stable form is a concern.
