Twosheetstothewind has rather harshly been raised 3lbs despite being beaten at Sandown last time and may be best watched, with preference for Make My Dream who gets the vote over Dancing Mystery. The last mentioned is not as good as he once was but is still capable of respectable form and has to be respected off what seems a fair mark. Hythe Bay has slipped to a fair mark but is hard to recommend on recent form, while Jayanjay has similarly dropped to a highly attractive mark on his form of three years ago but he is no where near as good as he was then and is hard to back with any confidence. Tony Carroll's Cerulean Rose is holding her form reasonably well and has to be respected but the vote goes to Make My Dream who is still a maiden but has been running well enough of late to suggest that a race of this nature could well be within him.
