Verdict
DREAM FARR has had just the six starts and posted his best effort so far when second over 5f last time. But he’s been placed over today’s longer trip before and Ed Walker’s charge can open his account. Colourbearer has been thereabouts at Lingfield recently and finished in front of Indian Affair when runner-up last month while Dominium drops back in trip after a close-up fourth at Wolverhampton. Divine Call is usually thereabouts at this level and Higher Court drops back down a grade.
