      Verdict

      DREAMSELLER (NAP) is only a pound higher than when successful over course and distance in September and he probably produced a career-best when only weakening close home on his reappearance at Pontefract. Back on this easier track, he should take all the beating. Gometra Ginty is also a winner over track and trip but hasn’t raced since October. Yukon may have improved over the winter judged on an unlucky run at Newcastle and he looks a bigger danger than the returning Makyon.
