Verdict
Blindingly won a maiden at Thirsk last time and Black Friday had been thereabouts on Turf before returning a disappointing favourite over track and trip. Chaplin Bay landed a double on the Turf last month but has to race off a 15lb higher mark back on the all-weather and Rock Boy Grey is preferred after going close here on his latest start. But ABSOLUTE DREAM (NAP) has shown signs of a resurgence lately having slid down the weights and Richard Fahey’s charge gets the vote after finishing a close-up fourth in a higher grade at Catterick.
