      In depth

      Verdict

      DARK SIDE DREAM arrives in the best form having won at Wolverhampton before going close over 6f here last time. He hasn’t raced over 7f since his racecourse debut and is worth another try over today’s trip. Varsovian is another with something to prove over the distance but is not badly treated while Intensical was placed over 7f at Wetherby a fortnight ago but hasn’t won since back in 2014. Billyoakes may prove best of the rest off his current mark.
