Having won his maiden at Ayr, Done Dreaming went straight into claiming company at Thirsk last time and returned a losing favourite four lengths behind today's rival CHARLEMAGNE DIVA. The latter is worse off at the weights but should still confirm superiority and Ann Duffield's filly gets the nod. Vanessa won a seller over C&D back in April but has shown nothing since while Red Star Lady has failed to match her debut fourth at Kempton early in the year. The remaining pair are even harder to fancy.
