CAPOTE’S DREAM went close on soft going over track and trip on a couple of occasions last month and faces an easier task in this. Coco Bear’s winning run came to an end at Newmarket but he’s back on a soft surface today and is preferred to Harb, who scored over 5f winner at Sandown last week. Hierarchy and Ultramarine are others back up in distance but Sassy Belle will relish the underfoot conditions.
