Verdict

Now's the time Mark Johnston pitches middle-distance three-year-olds in against older horses and DREAMS UNWIND can follow up a decisive course and distance success last month for the yard. The trainer stated the improved form shown was down to contesting a weaker race, so hopefully the Dansili filly can repeat the dose at this same level. Fellow three-year-old Rainbow's Gift could improve for the step-up in trip off bottomweight but Betty Grable is consistent at this level and appeals as a likelier danger, having proved herself over course and distance. Richard R H B could also contend now back to an attractive mark of 64, a stone less than on the all-weather.
