Both Magical Treasure and The Goldmeister were well beaten despite making the frame on their latest starts. Hobb's Dream won at Chepstow in April but has failed to figure in a couple of subsequent outings and Golden Squirell is preferred on his recent second at Fontwell. SOLITARY PALM scored over a shorter trip here in May and finished third over track and trip last month when finishing well clear of the rest of the field. Brian Forsey's charge gets the nod racing off the same mark in this.
