Verdict

A fiendishly competitive sprint handicap to close the card, with DREAM COMPOSER given the narrow vote to come out on top. Having scored in good style over C&D in May, he followed up at Goodwood earlier this month and looks sure to go well in his hat-trick bid from a handy draw. Ghathanfar and course-specialist Corinthia Knight are others to consider, whilst dual Sky Bet series winner Eilean Dubh remains one to be positive about for all his draw in 17 makes life tougher.
