Working on the theory that it is an expensive hobby backing horses trying to achieved what they have never done before, we side with Mytton's Dream to get the better of Little Wizzy, who are the only two runners in the race to have a previous victory to their names. The handicapper currently has Yorkshire Lad as the best horse in the race and he too is respected accordingly. However, it does not take long to pick holes in his form and he is probably best watched on this, his all weather debut. Little Wizzy hails from a yard that do very well in races of this nature and, considering that the daughter of Wizard King was considered good enough to take on the eventual Norfolk Stakes winner, Blue Dakota, at one stage during the last turf season, she has to be given a second look in a race like this. She was well beaten at this level last though and is not one to go overboard about. Therefore we turn to Mytton's Dream, who ran his best race for a while at Southwell three weeks ago and will be hard to overhaul if he is in the same frame of mind this afternoon.
