Verdict
Bird Dog has raced mainly on the Fibresand at Southwell, winning twice, but is dropping down a grade on his return to the Polytrack and already has a verdict over The Magic Of Rio. Tancred Spirit ran a bit better last time and may figure along with Hambleton, but LIZZY'S DREAM looks the safest option. She remains unexposed having beaten the re-opposing Deveze, Porthgwidden Beach, Rio's Girl and Love Club over C&D last time and Robin Bastiman's filly can find enough improvement to defy a 4lb rise in the weights.
