Verdict

Your Band won over 1m4f at Lingfield before finding 1m3f at Kempton too short and may not appreciate this further drop in distance. LUCKY'S DREAM is preferred given he found himself in the lead at Wolverhampton last time and can do better under a more restrained ride today with winning partner Martin Dwyer back on board having scored over track and trip earlier. Pablow posted a better effort at Wolverhampton recently and Sharp Operator has form over a mile but it's hard to make a case for any of the remainder in their current form.
