Verdict
Rated 82, BUXTED DREAM gets another chance back over 7f after failing to land the odds at Lingfield last time. Luca Cumani’s charge should make no mistake in this company. Dark Magic also steps up in trip on the back of a debut fifth over 6f at Windsor and looks the main threat. Both Mohsen and Lady Prima have plenty of improving to do having been well beaten on their respective debuts while the newcomer Small Mercy makes little appeal.
