Verdict
DREAM ALLY is usually thereabouts and gets a token vote in a weak handicap. Justice Rock has yet to win in 30 attempts but was placed at Kempton last time and finished ahead of Virile, Silver Springs, Wedgewood Estates and Louis Vee when fourth at Wolverhampton before that. Insolenceofoffice is back on a winning mark but out of form while Irvine Lady is unexposed but has yet to threaten.
