Verdict
Kaymich Perfecto returned to winning ways last time out and has to be onsidered again today, however we will take a chance with the fitness of Dream Mountain, who gets the verdict ahead of Wing Commander. Mark Johnston's three-year-old took a Newcastle maiden in good style in September, before running very poorly in three handicaps. However two of those were on the all-weather and the other was on very soft ground. Back on a firm surface and having dropped significantly in the weights we could see a much better showing. Kaymich Perfecto was most impressive when beating Bond Diamond at Redcar last month and although hammered by the handicapper he should still be involved in the finish. Wing Commander looked on the way back to his best when finishing a close up third behind Riley Boys at Beverley last week and he looks booked for some more place money. In a pretty open affair Mujood can also be given a chance on the pick of this season's efforts, however we expect Dream Mountain to leave previous handicap form behind and land this finale.
