Rated 84, ACASTER MALBIS has become a shade frustrating having failed to score in maiden company this year. But he won't get many easier opportunities than this and can finally come good. Racing's Dream had just the one outing last year when failing to figure at Haydock while Legal Shark drops back in distance after a poor effort at a mile on his recent debut. Mary Ann Bugg is thoroughly exposed and up against it on today's terms but Falsify could go well after a debut fourth at Wolverhampton.
