Verdict
This not much better than the previous division with DREAM ALLY only a token selection on his second over track and trip last month. Tulip Dress won here back in May and could go well off a similar mark while Virile was placed over 5f at Bath during the week. My Time won over 7f at Southwell early in the year and Orlando Rogue went close over the same distance here in June. Whipphound continues his descent in the weights as he looks to end a long losing run.
