Verdict

Having taken 15 attempts to get off the mark over hurdles, Lindsay's Dream duly followed up her Plumpton win at Uttoxeter. She's gone up a further 5lb but a hat-trick isn't out of the question, though Zoe Davision's mare would probably prefer softer ground. Stratford third Dirty Bertie is lightly raced, as is Stentorian, but much of Gud Day's best form has come in sellers. Towcester winner JAWHARY unseated his rider when favourite on a return visit to the Northamptonshire track but could be worth another chance here with Daryl Jacob taking over the reins.
