Verdict
Michaels Dream, Impinda and Sono look like the ones to concentrate on in a weak contest, but Michaels Dream gets the vote. He made a pleasing debut when second behind Liberty Seeker. He is sure to have learned from the experience and given nominal improvement he will take all the beating. Impinda rates the main danger as he was a fair second behind Positive Profile but he has had plenty of chances and lacks the scope of the selection. Sono is another that showed a modicum of ability on his debut when fifth in a class B novices hurdle at Ayr last time. He will find this easier but he may be seen to better effect over a longer trip in time. Of the remainder, Full Time is from a shrewd yard and is worth noting in the market, but he will have to be above average to defeat the selection Michaels Dream
