I CAN DANCE shaped with considerable promise when second at Newmarket recently and looks sure to improve for this step up in trip. If this doesn't become messy he can go one better. Last Verse is feared most.

Verdict
55,000 gns yearling, Bated Breath colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including 2-y-o 7f/1m winner Feigning Madness and 2-y-o 7f winner Dance In The Grass, both useful. Second of 5 in novice race at Newmarket (7/1) 11 days ago, led until headed inside final furlong, kept on. Sure to improve up in trip.

Verdict

Verdict
