Dream Witness is given the nod to win this at the expense of Is and Kings College. The selection ran well enough when fourth of eight in claiming company last time out. This is a further drop in grade and although he Dream Witness is no world beater this is not the best of races so if able to reproduce his latest effort he has to be short listed. As does Is who ran well to finish a close third in a slightly better contest at Yarmouth three starts ago but has since failed to trouble the judge. But this is not a great race so he has to be respected. Kings College is another to note as although his form is again moderate David Evans has his team of horses in good form at present and he is fitted with first time visors so any market moves should be noted. But for the winner we return to Dream Witness.
