Verdict
Voix Du Reve has had a run but is facing a very stiff task at the weights in this. BREWIN’UPASTORM landed this by nine lengths 12 months ago when beating arguably better opposition. He’s rated 10lb higher than the enigmatic Langer Dan yet receives 4lb. Dashel Drasher is much better over fences but will ensure there is no hanging about and he’s probably the danger to the selection.
