The Punt Daily: three to follow on an action-packed Saturday

BANKER

Danzeno (2.05 Doncaster)

This isn't the strongest of Listed contests and the market will be focused around the ultimately disappointing three-year-old Sir Dancealot. At the prices it looks wise to take him on and Danzeno is certainly the best of the rest. The six-year-old gelding comes into this on the back of two creditable efforts in Group company – the latter in the Group 1 Champions Sprint – and looks primed to strike on his third start back from a break. Drawn well in nine and partnered by Oisin Murphy for the first time, he can return a decent-priced winner. (Tom Collins)

EYECATCHER

Royal Line(3.15 Doncaster)

John Gosden has won the November Handicap twice since 2009 but he also landed the prize in the 1990s with a lightly raced three-year-old, a very similar profile to that of Royal Line. He wasn't at his best in a tactical three-runner affair at Newbury last time but showed his worth in a truer run race at Haydock on his handicap debut prior. That came on a testing surface so conditions on Town Moor this weekend should be ideal for him. (Kevin Morley)

DARK HORSE

On Tour (2.15 Aintree)

On Tour was an unlucky second in this race last year off a higher mark and looks to have to be trained for the race again by his in-form trainer Evan Williams. Badly hampered three out 12 months ago, On Tour still looked likely to win before being a bit slow at the last. With a good 5lb claimer booked, there is no reason why he can't go one better.
