Plenty with a shout in the opener. Dashing Poet is penalised for last week’s win at Chelmsford but Powerful Dream has been raised only 2lb for scoring over track and trip last time. Pushkin Museum, Roaring Rory and Annie Salts all won at the track last month but have been beaten since though the latter should confirm earlier running with Noble Asset. Goodwood Crusader went close at Lingfield recently but DUSTY BLUE landed a higher grade sprint at Southwell on her latest start with Ryedale Rio back in fifth and David Loughnane’s mare should be thereabouts once again.
