Dream Factory travels a long way for this but was well beaten on his debut at Doncaster and never got into the race at Chelmsford earlier this month. Guy Fawkes showed potential in two starts on the all-weather last season and is another making a long journey as is Zanjabeel, who didn't quite get the run of the race on his debut at Wolverhampton. The newcomer Daleside doesn't look highly tried and Next Train's Gone caught the eye at Lingfield but it's yet another raider from the south, PRINCESSE EVA, who is handed the vote on her first start for James Fanshawe since arriving from France where she showed promise over trips too short. Kings Gold looks best of the remainder on his latest start at Newcastle.
