      In depth

      Verdict

      Love Dreams was a winner in a lower grade here six weeks ago and is only 3lb higher. A line through the second suggests he should beat Tahitian Prince but FARASI LANE is back in the right grade after a fair fourth at Haydock and makes more appeal. Danville has been racing over longer trip but Raajil has won two of his four starts to date and may have more to offer. Colour Image is best watched at present.
