        Verdict

        Rain Gauge has only run on the all-weather, scoring at Wolverhampton in April, while Reams Of Love has disappointed since a promising debut at York in September. WINK OF AN EYE (NAP) didn't enjoy heavy ground here last month after a fine run on fast going at Goodwood and he'll have conditions to suit. Dream Chaser has done almost all of his racing on Polytrack while Red Glory's sole victory came over 1m4f on softish ground at Beverley. Rattling Rosie did better at Wolverhampton last time and made a fair debut here in September so should get into contention.
