Making Dreams, far from a leading light of Karl Burke's juvenile battalions, has been tried at different trips on each start. She stayed on well to claim the runner-up spot in a Chester seller eight days ago and has an obvious chance. Surface To Air ran pretty well in a valuable York seller in mid-June and is now equipped with first-time tongue tie and blinkers to aid his cause. A competitive effort is expected. The form of Regal Fighter is not easy to assess and a market check on the Nicholls newcomer, Us Navy Jack, is required. However, the Channon operation has a good record when dropping charges into selling company and THE GOOD BISCUIT may prove another such example after shaping more than adequately when fourth in a decent maiden at Nottingham after meeting trouble in running.
