        Verdict

        LUCENT DREAM ran well again at Wolverhampton attempting to repeat his earlier success at the same track and may be worth sticking with. Stoneboat Bill was still beaten five lengths when runner-up here last time and Dark Crystal is preferred with a recent reappearance at Musselburgh under her belt. Kiwi Bay was nowhere near his best in an amateurs' race here recently but was not beaten far at Pontefract before that while Druid's Diamond remains unexposed and could go well off his current mark.
