Hazy Dream has attracted market support the last twice but was beaten when unseating her rider at the last at Hereford last month. Bridge Road is back in the right grade and Bert Wilson has to go on the shortlist as both wins, including one here last month, have come on soft going. After three runs in novice and maiden company, the four-year-old JUST OVER LAND makes his handicap debut in modest company. He’s been progressing nicely and looks better treated than Mr Hailstone and Royal Mer.
