It could pay to stick with DREAM ALLY in his current form. He’s won three of his last four starts now after following a course and distance success with a win at Wolverhampton and is only 4lb higher. Athollblair Boy went close at Nottingham last time and Epeius won over track and trip in March. French had been running well before disappointing at Pontefract and Traveltalk ended last season with a win at Catterick but is 4lb higher for his return.
