    Verdict

    Dream With Me has found it tough going in better company the last twice but completed a double here earlier in the season. Khagan has yet to show much since arriving from France and was well behind Chichester at Redcar in May. The latter went on to score at Carlisle and Platinumcard made a winning start in handicaps here two weeks ago and is only a pound higher. KOLISI’s run at Goodwood was too bad to be true and the previously-progressive three-year-old could make amends in this.
