First In Command is upped in the weights and in class having landed a hat-trick on the Fibresand at Southwell last month and Ghostwing, though also in winning form at Southwell this year and a comfortable winner ahead of the re-opposing Love You Louis at that track in January, was engaged at Windsor last night. Triple Dream handles soft ground but does seem better on a faster surface nowadays so we'll take a chance on JUST FOR MARY, who is difficult to catch right but well treated if in the mood. Speak The Truth and Welsh Inlet don't look particularly well handicapped at present however.
