Burke on rain dance for Odeliz Karl Burke will see how much rain Ascot receives over the weekend before deciding whether to let Odeliz take her chance in Wednesday's Duke of Cambridge Stakes. The consistent five-year-old picked up more black type at Epsom last week when third in the Princess Elizabeth Stakes, but she still only has a Listed win to her name. With a small field likely in the race formerly known as the Windsor Forest, Burke could be tempted to run her again quickly if sufficient rain falls. "She's come out of the race in great form," said the Middleham handler. "We left her in the race at Ascot as there's lots of rain about. "Not too many look like being confirmed and along with ours, there might only be three or four with a realistic chance. "It's so frustrating we can't win a Group race with her, but the jockeys keep riding her for speed. "Because she travels well the jockeys think she will pick up instantly, but she's more of a galloper and needs more use made of her. "One day it will all drop in her lap, I'm sure of it."
