ALBAN’S DREAM posted a better effort when runner-up over track and trip last time. Robert Eddery’s grey may prove good enough in this weak sprint and confirm latest running with Sister of The Sign. Drumnadrochit drops in class on his first start since October. He’s been gelded subsequently and headgear is added for the first time while Valley Belle won at Chelmsford in November but has struggled lately. Macho Lady won over the minimum trip here back in August and Good Tyne Girl landed a seller over course and distance in the same month and returns for the first time since.
