550 Perth

Traditional Dancer 7/2 PP

C/D winner but can be a bit frustrating, he's in good form at the minute so worth following here after a very good effort at Ayr last time out. He travelled like the best horse in the race that day but just failed to deliver the goods under an amateur rider. Ross Chapman is back on top here and should make amends with everything in his favour.

York 2.20
Copper Knight 
Has been given a chance by the handicapper dropping to a pound of his last winning mark of 95.  Although probably best on good going he put up a decent effort over GF when 3rd in a class 1 race last June off a mark of 101. Although not getting his head in front again last season he was never beaten far regardless of going or class. Copper Knight has won 3 times in his career and 
all 3 have been notched up in May so this maybe the time to catch him right. He is a course winner and Dave Allan takes the ride in preference to Tim Easterby's other runners East Street Revue and Excessable. This is also the first time the jockey has partnered the selection since he won on him here last year, in fact he has never finished out of the top 
two when aboard. The jockey has also won this race for the last two years so knows the way home. 
Draw 3 should not be a problem. Copper Knight sire is Sir Prancealot who's offspring improve from 4yo and 
upward. The downside is that the selections has not had the benefit of a run this season however he 
finished second on his seasonal debut in 2017. Think that Edward Lewis and Holmeswood rate major dangers. 
Bet365 10/1

YORK 2:20 Poyle Vinnie @ 11/1 bet365 e/w thanks 

Poyle Vinnie.....from Ruth Carr yard was previously with Michael Appleby till March this year the 8yo has been a winner of seven races from 5f to 6f on ground varying from good to firm to soft and on the all-weather but has not won for over a year,

The new yard has gave him four runs two of which he finished 2nd in both races with cheekpieces on but yard are going with blinkers on for first time and with his last race one of those 2nd place only 9 days ago at Thirsk over 5f (good to firm) beaten 1/2 length , He goes today 16lb lower than when third in this contest in 2017 and in new yard could do the trick
