Carlisle runner-up Welcome Dream has the strongest form of those with experience though steps up in trip for this. Keen Interest is a likely improver having encountered heavy ground at Newmarket on his debut but a couple of the newcomers look likely to get involved. Ten Dimes cost a whopping 600,000gns as a half-sister to a couple of winners but INDALO is related to a two-year-old winner over today’s distance and gets the vote with his yard continuing to fire-in the winners.
