Verdict

ONE MORE DREAM has raced a couple of times over track and trip and won on both occasions. He’s been raised 5lb for his latest success but an apprentice’s allowance helps on that score and John Quinn’s charge can go in again. A dual 6f winner last year, Shades Of Summer attempts this longer trip for the first time while Winforglory also won twice last season but has struggled in handicaps so far. Jenson Benson’s success here in February came over 1m2f but Ideal Guest has a shout on last autumn’s victory at Ascot if at his best on his reappearance.
