In depth
Verdict
Geordies Dream is penalised for winning at Kelso back in April and can go well again with Brian Hughes taking over the reins. But CARNFUNNOCK may take advantage as the Irish raider finished a decent third in a Punchestown bumper on his debut and this looks an easier task. Mountain Glory and Vintage Fizz look likely improvers while the Flat-bred Paddock Cottage makes most appeal of the newcomers.
