Dream of Delphi has improved for the switch to handicaps. She won over 7f on Turf at Lingfield last month before finishing second over this trip at Chelmsford. Blinkers may elicit further progress, though she’s been done no favours by another 8lb rise. Soft going clearly suits MILAN REEF, who got off the mark at Chepstow earlier this month - she’s gone up 6lb but may well win again. Emerald Rocket is fitted with a visor following his latest fourth here and enters the equation while a case can also be made for Here In The Dark and Echo.
