A very competitive heat this, and from a shortlist of Onceuponatime, We Have A Dream and Dunno, we'll side with the hat-trick chasing We Have A Dream. Well drawn, Willie Muir's colt has been impressive in his victories over this distance in similar company at Folkestone and Leicester, and may try and set the pace. He's been placed in 9 of his 15 starts, and looks to set the standard here. Onceuponatime is also on a three timer, following recent successes at Leicester and Kempton; in the latter he got the better of Honey Monster who's since won at this level, so there is a form line to be followed. Dunno is worthy of another chance, although he seems better at 5 furlongs than 6. None of them can really be ruled out, but our preference in this tight contest is for We Have A Dream.
