Furzig has won twice this year already. Red October was only beaten a length by Lydford at Lingfield and is 5lb better off but DREAMWEAVER gets another chance with Saffie Osborne taking off 5lb. Ed Walker’s gelding has been racing over longer trips since just beaten on fast going at Salisbury in the spring when 2lb higher. Last month course and distance winner Sword Beach also goes on the shortlist while Big Boy Bobby is on an upward curve but this may prove too far for Repertoire and handicap debutant Roscioli. Luigi Vampa has ability but is a law unto himself so Igraine may prove the pick of the remainder.
