No less than three of these bid for hat-tricks but Chaparral Dream’s latest easy course and distance success has caused the handicapper to raise him 15lb. Sheisdiesel’s course double came over shorter trips though she should confirm running with Alhajjaj but PARK ROW (NAP) gets the nod. The latter beat both Moonmeister and Trevena when recording his latest success over track and trip and a 3lb rise may not be enough to anchor him in this. Active Approach is a frustrating type still looking for her first win having placed six times in nine starts.
