Verdict
Without a win for over two years, Tuscan Dream was not winning out of turn at Warwick, although that was a weak event. He will not have his own way in front here as he had at Warwick, for the speedy Soaked is well drawn to lead. He is best in on official figures and while he is probably better over the minimum trip, he does stay this far and will take plenty of beating. Lay Down Sally doesn't have too much to find and she will be suited by the likely strong pace, while the diminutive La Belle Claire, may just be lacking in experience for a race of this nature.
