        Verdict

        Dream Spirit should go well again given he beat Franco's Secret, Fleckerl and Hannington over a mile here recently. But he has done all his winning over the latter distance so far and MODERNISM (NAP) is preferred in this. Richard Fahey's charge has been thereabouts in tougher handicaps than this over track and trip of late and should make another bold bid. Gaelic Silver finished behind the selection here last month but Mediate could go well though he's upped a grade on his first start since July.
