DANCING SAXON makes plenty of appeal on the best of her form in maidens and should be capable of better stepping back up in trip on nursery debut. She's narrowly preferred to expensive Kingman filly You'll Think Of Me who has shaped with plenty of promise to date and is open to improvement back over 7f on handicap bow. Quinta Girl has improved with each run and may progress again switched to a nursery, while Whistling Jamesie won here on Tuesday and merits respect if lining up under a penalty.
