Verdict
A couple of these bid for hat-tricks including Dancing Harry, who finished a long way in front of Lucky Deal over track and trip last time but is upped in class. LIVE YOUR DREAM defied a 10lb rise in the weights when winning in this grade over course and distance last month and is taken to continue winning ways. Hochfeld finished behind the selection but Speedo Boy has been in good form over 2m and is fitted with additional headgear. Indigo Times has yet to win on Turf though has a good strike rate on the all-weather and is preferred to Byron Flyer.
