Verdict
It's a long time since Dreambrook Lady showed any worthwhile form and she was well beaten in a bumper on the Fibresand last time. Pyleigh Lass is coming down the weights but is yet to show any improvement for it and Entertain Me didn't make much impression back over hurdles at Doncaster last time. LIGHTS OF BROADWAY is a tentative selection as though she was well beaten when fancied at Taunton last time her earlier second at Leicester was a fair effort and repeat here may well suffice. Marie Deja La has only won at Fontwell in this country and has been below par lately.
