HERONS WELL has his sights lowered after finishing third in the Fox Hunters' at Aintree. He is a decent performer on his day and, with the soft ground very much in his favour, can record his first win since successful at Fontwell 15 months ago. After a couple of runs behind Gwanako at Sandown, I Have Dreamed has won at Ascot and Kempton beating today's rival Whizzaar by 10 lengths on the latter occasion. The runner-up is a couple of pounds better off here but that may not be enough to turn the tables. Silver Adonis was well behind the selection at Aintree but may still be best of the rest as Mustangsallyrally is exposed at this level.
