In depth
Verdict
Live In The Dream is 7lb higher than when scoring here back in May and is drawn higher today. Manaccan finished in front of Navello at Ascot last month and the latter went on to score here with Gabrial The Devil behind. Copper Knight also scored over track and trip in June when COUNT D’ORSAY was third but the latter re-opposes on better terms and Tim Easterby’s charge is taken to end a long losing run. Look Out Louis beat the selection by a head here back in May but has drawn wide for this while King Of Stars and Shamlaan filled the places at Sandown last month.
