In depth
Verdict
Dream Of Fortune finished runner-up for the fourth time in succession last week and it's difficult to have any confidence in him now, but Silver Guest won over a mile here last month and, if staying this longer trip, should figure. VISIONS OF JOHANNA was sent off favourite on his latest start over C&D but made his bid a long way from home and quickly ran out of steam. He's given another chance here with Jimmy Quinn taking over the reins. Cobo Bay was engaged to run at Southwell yesterday.
