Temur Khan runs his best races here but was well behind No Diggity when favourite for a classified race over the course and distance last month. The latter was a couple of lengths behind Control in a 1m2f handicap here next time but is 3lb better off and may turn the tables back over a more suitable trip. The three-year-old maiden DEE’S DREAM has undoubtedly improved since tackling longer distances. She was second on her own previous visit here and is taken to come good today. Seraphia could also figure but Storm Valley has been frustrating to follow.
