In depth

Verdict

Michael's Dream returned to winning ways in great style last time and can follow up this afternoon, Intavac Boy and Tycheros are also expected to go well. The selection showed terrific determination when landing that contest over course and distance, grinding out a head victory over Tipes. The third horse was five lengths back so it could be pretty solid form and off what still looks a decent mark he can go in again. Intavac Boy is trying this trip for the first time, but has been in great form recently. There is every chance he will stay the distance and could be a major threat. Tycheros is also at the top of his game, landing two recent races races here. The trip holds no fears for this one and he should make a bold bid to land the hat-trick. Jackie Kiely may now be in the handicappers grip, but is another to consider for place purposes, but Michaels Dream cannot be ignored in this mood and gets the nod.
