    Verdict

    Live In The Dream is penalised for an earlier debut success at Wolverhampton though should still have the measure of both Lucy Lulu and Lotus Rose at the weights. But DESIGNER has a shout on these terms having had little chance in a Group 3 sprint at Ayr a fortnight ago and she gets the nod back at this lower level. Manila Scouse appeared to handle the soft going when fifth at Beverley but the newcomer Strawberry Dream’s breeding suggests she’ll prove best over longer trips.
