Verdict

EQUUS DREAMER cranked it up another notch when successful at Haydock 3 weeks ago and, still unexposed over this sort of trip, he can land this good prize. Amateur has likely been primed in his pursuit for a hat-trick of wins in this race and is a big danger, with Super Survivor the potential improver in the race now tackling a new distance.
