Devasboy won over course and distance just over two weeks ago, with Liangel Hope back in fourth, but was only third behind Meng Tian at Wolverhampton in March and is a pound worse off. LIAMARTY DREAMS has probably run his best races at Haydock but was only beaten a short-head there last time off today’s mark so looks to have a good chance of returning to winning ways.
