Verdict
DREAM CHILD has won three of her last four starts and may be capable of better still stepping up in trip. She's preferred to Double Discount who remains 8lb higher than October's win at Kempton. Gabrial's Star has a shout off his current mark having won here on his penultimate start but this is much tougher than the contest Freewheel finished second in last month. Teolagi remains a shade high in the weights judged on recent placed efforts and unseated when badly hampered at Lingfield last week.
