Emef Rock beat DREAM APPROVAL a head at Brighton earlier this month but the latter is the more progressive of the pair. Daniel Kubler's charge has since won easily at Carlisle and is expected to go in again here. Fast Charlie was engaged to run at Catterick yesterday so the result should be monitored. He finished well ahead of the disappointing Best Dressed at Chester last time while Chances Are ran a shocker when sent off favourite on her handicap bow at Beverley last month.
