Quite a decent three-year-old handicap and it should give OCEAN DRIVE a good chance of getting back on track as she looks to be ahead of her mark and capable of better than she has shown in two handicaps so far. Amelia Dream isn't out of this if she gets a decent gallop while Starmaker travelled well last time out and showed that he can handle ground as soft as this. Most of the others have some questions to answer although Conkering Hero is worth a second look despite his revised mark that looks to give him a stiff task.
