      In depth

      Verdict

      DREAM WITH ME is improving and is getting plenty of weight from older and more-exposed rivals so it would be no surprise to see him get off the mark but a case can be made for most of these. Groveman looked to be in the handicapper’s grip last time at Ripon, however, while Elector hasn’t really fired since switching stables but did finish ahead of Where's Jeff at York. Squelch arrives on a hat-trick but is stepped up in grade, though has his ground again.
