Verdict
Dreamweaver failed to land the odds at Worcester on his second start over hurdles but has a good chance to recoup losses here. VICTORY CLUB has already won a point-to-point and a bumper and is a half-brother to a winning hurdler. He can make a winning start over timber despite the claims of Bagheera Ginge, who has run a couple of promising races at Uttoxeter.
