        Verdict

        Anfield Dream has shown promise in a couple of pipe-openers at Southwell but now has his optimum conditions of six furlongs on Lingfield's Polytrack and can resume winning ways at the main expense of Law Maker and The Fisio. The last mentioned is gradually slipping to a fair mark but has yet to prove that he stays six furlongs so he may be best watched. Ever Cheerful has rather harshly been raised 3lbs despite being beaten off his old mark in his last two starts, while Wicked Uncle could also do with some more help from the handicapper. Alan Bailey's Law Maker is progressing but the six-year-old now has a career high mark to defy and a safer bet looks to be Anfield Dream, who has his ideal conditions.
