Back To Brussels was an 80/1 chance when runner-up in a Cork Listed race where she had Pronouncement and Lady Penelope behind. There doesn't appear any reason for a form reversal and the latter holds stable companion Unforgetable on their run here last month. Forever In Dreams, the only four-year-old in the race, has some cracking form to her credit including her head second to Speak In Colours in the Group 2 Greenlands Stakes at the Curragh where she had some very smart sprinters behind. She's an obvious threat to all and MILLISLE has to carry a Group 1 penalty for her Cheveley Park victory but she looked ready to win again soon when chasing home the very progressive Art Power in a Group 3 here earlier this month so just gets the nod.
