ARTISAN DANCER shaped well when runner-up on reappearance at Kempton 19 days ago and he's on a workable mark for this return to turf. Surrey Belle has won a couple of races over hurdles for her new yard and may find some improvement returned to the Flat, with Zimmerman not totally discounted having gone well fresh in the past.
