DREAM OF MINE looks a stand-out bet in the opener and she is nominated to get the better of Forward Feline and Riflessione. The selection could only finish third behind Via Mia here last time out when she was a beaten favourite. However, she had shaped with promise on both her previous starts and she cost ¿180,000, so connections will be hoping for better here and she looks worth another chance. Forward Feline should be the one to capitalise if the selection fails to fire as she has been a model of consistency and despite not yet winning, she has yet to run a bad race. She is making her all-weather debut here and if she handles the surface then she should be a banker to finish in the money. Riflessione has shown some promise but all his best efforts have been over the minimum trip and he was well beaten on his first try over 6f last time out. Bounty Box is of interest as she has shown she does have ability on her two appearances on the racecourse, but she has got her quirks and she is one to have slight reservations about. It will be disappointing if Dream Of Mine is not good enough to win this and she is the confident choice.
