Verdict

Pearl Of Qatar made a winning debut over the minimum trip at Beverley and He'zanarab won over 5f at Windsor on his introduction. Dark Vision was successful over today’s trip at Yarmouth on his debut and Autumn Splendour scored at the same track last month. But all of the above are penalised today and ABSOLUTE DREAM can take advantage. Beaten only a nose at Redcar last time with a subsequent winner back in third, Richard Fahey’s colt gets the vote.
