Verdict
GOLDREAM was backed to follow-up his maiden win at Wolverhampton when sent off favourite at Doncaster last time. He found the progressive Khubala too good on that occasion but this looks less competitive and he gets the vote. Indego Blues scored at Pontefract on his latest start and can effectively race off a lower mark here with Shirley Teasdale's claim taken into account while Henry Bee finally got off the mark at Beverley last time but is facing a tougher task back in handicap company. Both Decision By One and Tip Top Gorgeous are difficult to predict but can figure on a going day.
