With blinkers applied to Spring Dream for the first time here she can get back to winning ways where some of the contenders come into the contest with a mixed bag of form. Spring Dream has recently contracted that equine disease, namely seconditis which punters should take caution of. First indications that she may have been thinking about the job on hand was at Nottingham two starts back where she travelled like a winner the whole way down the straight but when push came to shove she was ultimately found wanting. That said, she is very consistent and ran to the line on the stiff climb at Sandown last time, finding the improving three year old Judgethemoment just too good and racing from the same mark she should be thereabouts. They All Laughed is closely matched with Spring Dream based on their Nottingham clash and should be in the mix up granted a clear run which he requires given his hold-up style of racing while Bollin Felix is lightly raced this season to date but displays his best when a considerable ease exists in the ground. Market moves for Tomina should be noted as he comes here having landed an all-weather handicap and surprisingly was sent off at big odds to do so. Yossi showed the benefit of a seasonal debut to finish second behind the smart mare La Vecchia Scuola last time and would have to be considered but even with the question marks lingering with regard to her resolution, Spring Dream can land this.
