Medici Moon opened his account with a success at Southwell last time while Dream Free started the season on a 10lb higher mark and Haldaw has tumbled even further down the weights. Vivre La Reve won over a shorter trip here back in March and Lucky Ellen posted a much better effort at Beverley on her handicap debut and could also figure. But SUBOTAL also showed a big improvement on his latest start when fourth here and he gets a speculative vote to come out best.
