It wouldn’t be the greatest of shocks to see Mark Johnston’s I Am A Dreamer bounce back here. Kachumba was going well before missing the break at Epsom but Reloaded has had another lay-off and been gelded since making a promising reappearance at Redcar in April. Fighting Temeraire was a hot favourite here nine days ago but only beat one home and may be in the handicapper’s grip at present. GAMBON (NAP) has run over 6f the last twice but broke his maiden over this trip at Leicester in July and can win again back on his favoured surface.
