Verdict
Bogus Dreams gets the confident vote to win this with Risky Way and College City rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time out when beating Top Achiever and although he has a penalty for that win he won with a little in hand and he is taken to defy the handicapper. Risky Way rates the main danger on his latest win over Collage City but that rival is weighted to reverse placeings with him and for that reason he is opposed. Compadre is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he is hard to win with while Stormy Beach has dropped to a handy mark but his best form is with more cut in the ground and for the winner we return to Bogus Dreams.
