Verdict
Lucid Dreams can beat Littleton Zephir, King of Music and Soviet Threat in the opener. Lucid Dreams handled the Polytrack well when scoring over the course and distance recently, getting up on the line to beat Motu despite racing keenly early on. In receipt of weight from most of his rivals here, Michael Wigham's charge should make a bold bid to follow up. Littleton Zephir ran out of steam close home against the selection, and there should be little between them at the weights again this time so he is the main danger. King of Music was second over nine furlongs at Wolverhampton last time and might not appreciate this slight drop back in trip, while Soviet Threat has topweight to overcome and needs to be restrained a bit more than last time here when fourth to Mystic Lad. Lucid Dreams won well last time and is the one to beat.
