Mares only for this two mile plus novice hurdle and in a race won by Dan Skelton twice in the last four years, we have to assume that Sheezer Dancer is a lot better than she seemed when sixth here on her hurdling bow.
Sent off a 20/1 chance that day suggesting she hadn’t been showing too much at home, she was actually beaten less than 10 lengths at the line and looks all set to mount a better challenge now.
Although I can see her surprising a few, winning may prove beyond her and my vote goes to Clondaw Park. Bought for a huge £320,000 after hacking up in his point-to-point at Lisronagh, the daughter of Walk In The Park is held in very high regard at the harry Derham yard, and if she is to match her price tag, she will need to be winning a race like this, first time out over hurdles or not.
