Verdict

GOLDEN FORCE came good around this time last year and got back to winning ways upped to this trip at Leicester last month. A 3lb rise is fair with Oisin Murphy booked to do the steering tonight. Swift Approval is the likely pace angle and has an excellent strike-rate for a handicapper but the selection is fancied to pick him off in the closing stages. I Am A Dreamer could figure if on a going day but Newmarket winner Mountain Rescue has gone back up in the weights and failed to cope at Ascot.
