Michaels Dream, Musally and Peter's Imp are three against the field in a competitive finale and the narrow vote is given to Michaels Dream. The selection was a good second behind Lease Back last time out and under similar conditions here and off the same mark he looks the one to be on. Musally rates the main danger on his latest third behind Dizzy Future.He looks sure to be suited by this shorter trip and should be watched in the market. Peter's Imp loves this track and has dropped to a handy mark so could go well at a price. Welsh Dream may just need the run after a 162 day break while Gabor looks weighted up to his best and for the winner we return to Michaels Dream.
