In depth
Verdict
AFRICAN DREAM is John Gosden’s only runner on this evening’s card. She’s by Oasis Dream out of a Group 3 winner and a half-sister to two winners. Though she will probably improve for the experience, it will be a surprise if she’s not in the firing-line. True Believer led until approaching the final furlong when third at Wolverhampton and looks a danger. Magnificia makes her all-weather debut but found only one too good at Yarmouth in July and Arriviste improved when third over course and distance just under two weeks ago.
