        Verdict

        DREAM HARDER defied a 6lb rise to land a double at Wolverhampton a couple of days ago. He returned a ready winner on both occasions and the hat-trick beckons. Billy Roberts ran below par back on the all-weather last time though recorded a double on the Tapeta at this time last year while Contrast won at Nottingham before struggling at Wolverhampton. Freak Out scored over track and trip in October and Al Baahy gets a change of headgear still looking for his first win.
