Not much to inspire confidence here but DUNEEN DREAM ran well for a long way on his recent reappearance and should come on for the run. A winner over C&D last March, he's only 2lb higher today and gets a tentative vote. Corrib finished third in similar company last time behind the improving John Potts and the latter has subsequently beaten Libre here. Bryn Palling's charge can come out best of that duo, but Mary Helen makes more appeal than both dropping down in class and distance.
