Race Tip

SALLYVILLE LADY (8) has made a good impression in two qualifying novice hurdles to get a rating to go handicapping. Good winner of a point to point and can't be ruled out for the Skelton's. HARD DEALT (9) has ran with credit on the last two starts in similar contests finishing 2L behind the same rival on both occasions. Should be suited by this test and rates highly. DRAMATIC ENCORE (3) was comfortably accounted for at Sandown in December and has been freshened up since. Cheek pieces applied for the first time and given another chance. In form rivals PISMO BEACH (4) and MASKED DANCE (2) are worth consideration.
