      Verdict

      This is trickier than perhaps at first glance. Dream Serenade has positive form figures to her name but hasn't been seen since scoring at Southwell on the first day of February. She has also yet to win in 12 starts on turf and therefore arrives with question marks and is taken on with AFFAIR. The selection wins in her turn for Hughie Morrison and confirmed her wellbeing with a solid effort last time at Leicester. She stays the trip well, handles the ground and Theodore Ladd's 7lb claim could prove most useful come the business end. Flower Power has shown better form the last twice and enters the argument along with Arctic Nel, from whom there may be more to come.
