Verdict

SHADES OF SUMMER was progressive prior to her respectable effort at Wolverhampton and a return to this track should help, so she's marginally preferred to the likeable One More Dream, who is still going the right way. Jenson Benson is also considered.

  1. SHADES OF SUMMER (IRE)
  2. ONE MORE DREAM
