Tips
Verdict: A repeat of his fourth in the Lockinge would see Dancing Gemini on the scene but he has become frustrating and concedes 5lb to the 3yos. If Hankelow can rediscover the form that saw him threaten to win the French 2,000 Guineas then he might well provide Karl Burke with a third successive win in this race. However, with Balmacara likely to keep him honest up front, this could be set up nicely for the dangerously unexposed NEEDLE MATCH, who was doing all his best work late in the day when returning from a break at Leopardstown. He surely has better days ahead of him, as a Group 1 entry would imply.[Alistair Jones]
