Verdict

CRYPTOS DREAM was having only his second start for Jack Jones’ yard when scoring at Brighton a week ago with plenty left in the tank. He placed off much higher marks when trained in Ireland and can shrug off a 5lb penalty. Mac Ailey has a shout on a recent second here while Dr Rio saves his best for Beverley and won over a shorter trip at the latter track last month. Lincoln Rockstar is another with a chance but was due to run at Beverley yesterday.
