      Verdict

      Paul Midgley has four runners in this sprint. Leodis Dream is a course and distance winner who likes quick ground and is well up to winning off this mark. Stablemate MID WINSTER is only 1lb higher than when last successful and has found the going too soft in her two runs this season. She can get back to winning ways though Navello's yard is firing on all cylinders and he's mainly competed at a higher level while Sampers Seven wasn't disgraced in Listed company at Bath. Papa Don't Preach has never won on Turf and there was give in the ground when he finished second at Wetherby.
