Shadow Dance

9st 1lb

J: Kaiya Fraser

T: Rebecca Menzies

No ground worries but his career highlights (1m4f/1m6f) were in 2024, including a win in this race; 6lb lower today but that's after a rather muted 2025 when still with Roger Varian and his form went badly the wrong way in three runs this January-April for new connections; tongue-tie and/or cheekpieces, both fitted for the first time, need to work the oracle.

J: Kaiya Fraser

T: Rebecca Menzies

Career highlights (1m4f/1m6f) for Roger Varian were in 2024 and he managed only mid-division in his three handicaps (at top meetings) last July-September; rather worse in both runs (his first races on AW) for new connections early this year but he returns to turf 8lb below his career-high mark.

Runner-up (albeit no match for winner) off today's mark at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) in May and didn't run badly on the Flat (1m6f) last month; could yet have a bigger effort in him over jumps but this drop back in trip may not be in his favour.

Form for new yard comprises a staying-on third at York (1m4f; first Flat start since 2024) and career-best success, with visor applied, in notable 2m handicap hurdle at Market Rasen; may have more to offer in the retained headgear; respected.

Won here in 2020 but last in this race last year; back to life at Newbury (2m, good; fine on soft) this April, making all in a six-runner race, but a sluggish start immediately put him on the back foot in the Chester Plate (10-1) one month ago and he ended up last of 17; well treated on old form but perhaps needs things to go his own way these days.

Running away with a 2m2f race on heavy going under 7lb claimer at Nottingham last October was a clear career best at the time; virtually matched that form in three of his races in a mixed campaign this year and maybe an increased stamina test will help, but being 5lb out of the handicap won't.

Won a Grade 2 bumper in 2023 and he's a useful hurdler; some respectable efforts switched to the Flat this year (1m3f/1m1f) and he could take a sizeable step forward now up in trip on his Flat handicap debut; certainly has potential off his opening mark in view of his hurdling ability.
