    Race Analysis

    EXPRESS SURPRISE (2) arrives off the back of a sterling effort in a competitive stayers event when 12L fourth. Two victories came prior to that around this distance and rated accordingly is sure to be thereabouts. Set Weights ALLOWS SONG (6) was well supported last start when returning after wind surgery ultimately fading into fourth. May find this easier. COURT AT SLIP (3) maintains a solid streak of placings. Second past two times finishing behind the same horse tackling soft-ground chases. Might at worst play a minor role again here. BALLYDANGAN (7) gained two course and distance wins. Cannot be dismissed.
