        Verdict

        Something went amiss with RIVER OF DREAMS when sent off favourite here last time as he faded tamely away in the closing stages. But he gets another chance in this given his earlier close-up third at the track is the best piece of form on offer. Sculptured has plenty in hand with Play Nicely on today's terms and looks the main danger of those with racecourse experience but it is worth noting the newcomers Penny Boo and The Nab, especially the former, who is related to five winners.
