        Verdict

        Dream Ally has been placed over 6f in lower grade races on the all-weather of late but WHERE THE BOYS ARE is preferred in this. She won twice last year, including under Paul Hanagan at Warwick, and there should be more to come from her this season. Margrets Gift is usually thereabouts but 6lb higher than her win at Beverley in August but Sleeping Apache finished closer at Nottingham in October when attempting the minimum trip for the first time.
