Verdict

OCEAN OF DREAMS looked an excellent prospect when scoring on debut last year and, while he's yet to fully build on it, he took a positive step last time and is worth a chance to prove himself better than a mark of 90 with cheekpieces on for his handicap debut. Going Remote and Gibbs Island are dangers and Glor Tire can't be dismissed given how much she's already improved this season.
