Verdict

Brian Ellison wouldn't be sending just one horse on the long journey from Yorkshire without good reason so DREAM WALKER, who won four times on soft ground last summer, is given the vote in the hope that the going doesn't dry out too much. Sir MIke has had plenty of experience and is just 2lb higher than his last win though he's been absent since October. Bold Prediction doesn't win often while Mr Red Clubs, who has won seven races on the all-weather, is still a maiden on Turf after 15 starts with just one third place to his name. Jonnie Skull has won no less than 17 races in his career with the majority of his Turf victories coming here so he can never be discounted.
