Verdict

There is little to choose between Bathwick Man and Aaman on their running behind Rose Row at Kempton on Thursday and both have to be respected following their efforts there but preference is for FOLLOW THE DREAM. Karen George's mare won with plenty in hand at Chepstow and a 5lb rise may not prevent her from scoring again in what does not look the strongest of contests. Mark Brisbourne's Squirtle is capable but inconsistent and of more interest may be the Andy Haynes-trained Looks The Business, who has won two of his last three starts but has gone up in the weights following those successes. Dazzling Begum is only 4lbs higher than when scoring at Southwell in July but she is better on the Fibresand, while Snowberry Hill showed signs of a return to form at Lingfield last time and has to be considered off a 1lb lower mark today. The vote though goes the way of Follow The Dream, who won well last time and can go in again here.
