Curtains made a winning reappearance on the Polytrack in March, but has been beaten out of sight on his last two starts, albeit in much better company. Ray Of Joy has a win a Bath last year to his credit but does most of his winning at Kempton so a tentative vote goes to WE HAVE A DREAM. Bill Muir's charge carries a penalty for his recent win at Windsor and will need to improve again here but, with doubts surrounding his chief rivals, he might just be capable of following up. Deerslayer has scope for improvement and Super Duplex is a winner over further but the remainder are hard to fancy.
