POWERFUL DREAM scored twice over track and trip last year and is back on a similar mark. He went close here last time and is just preferred to Met By Moonlight. The latter finished runner-up over 5f here last week and can race off the same mark again today. The remainder are harder to fancy in their current form given Napping disappointed at Chelmsford in March and Everkyllachy’s 5f success at the track last year came in soft going.
