Another mediocre contest can go the way of Make My Dream, with Norcroft, Kind Of Fizzy and Currency worth a small mention as well. This race will not live long in the memory no doubt, with Make My Dream selected to small stakes. John Gallagher's four-year-old is actually still a maiden after 25 career outings, but has gone close to breaking his duck on a number of occasions, including when second in a big field at Lingfield the time before last. He certainly has no more to do here, and could be worth chancing in a race that will take very little winning. Norcroft is well handicapped these days and rates a danger on his close second at Wolverhampton in July, given that he is dropped in grade here. Kind Of Fizzy has already opened her account on soft ground at Yarmouth in June but has been way out of form on faster going since, so is best watched, while old Currency was taken off his feet at Goodwood last time, and struggled in the rear, but in this company, and with a good draw, could easily go close. They appear to be the main contenders, with the pin coming down on Make My Dream.
