DREAM LOVE (NAP) made a winning start when landing a maiden race over track and trip. A couple of subsequent winners have come out of the race so the form looks solid enough and Simon Dow’s filly can go in again. Bumper winner Potters Lady Jane went close in this code at Chelmsford in October but over a longer trip while Zain Arion popped-up at 16/1 over 1m2f at the latter track last month and is 3lb higher today. Heartstone also steps up in distance after a second at Wolverhampton but drops down in class and could figure.
