Verdict

WISHES AND DREAMS made a promising start for her new yard when runner-up over C&D and can build on it to get off the mark. Gracesolution didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fifth here last time and is next on the list while St Cianans Fire, Nevada Brave and Lucky Question all need factoring into this very open handicap too.
