Verdict
Powerful Dream landed a double over 5f with her recent victory at Lingfield but finished last on her only previous effort over today's longer trip. The Commendatore and Kyllukey arrive on the back of wins in maiden company while Showmethewayavrilo only won a lower grade contest at Kempton in October and makes his reappearance off a 6lb higher mark. WISHSONG scored over track and trip at the start of the year and can be forgiven a poor effort on the Fibresand at Southwell last time. Dandy Nicholls' filly gets the nod in a wide-open sprint.
