Verdict

MAID TO DREAM is clearly one of the stable's lesser lights but starts life in handicaps off a mark of only 64 and can exploit that. She shaped quite well at Kempton last time when fourth behind Zip Lock, especially as she was short of room at a crucial stage. Paul Hanagan rides Whispering Spirit who has won twice here recently. However Ann Duffield's charge was no match for Mazamorra from a two-pound lower mark last time. Amber Sunset ran well at Epsom last time but so far the pick of her form is all on turf. Mount Juliet is back to a winning mark and shaped well here last time while Ajara is a dual course winner and could hardly have been more impressive last time. That was over six furlongs though and she has a six-pound penalty to contend with.
