Verdict

Love Dreams won at Chelmsford last week and had earlier finished in front of both Donncha and Medahim when runner-up at Newmarket. The latter will be sharper today and may reverse running but Right Action is raised a further 5lb and upped in class as he bids for a hat-trick. Gallipoli has a shout on his third in a handicap at the All-Weather Championships when SQUATS never recovered from a slow start. But the Haggas charge won off a similar mark in soft going at Newbury last summer and Georgia Cox can use her 3lb claim today. Masham Star finished ahead of Mutawathea when placed at Haydock last week while Mister Music has been making hay at Southwell but hasn’t won on Turf since 2015.
