Verdict
Little form of substance other than a better recent effort from CRACKIN DREAM who seems to have improved for a gelding operation. He displayed bits and pieces of form as a juvenile and this looks a good opportunity back up to 7f. He's no good thing by any means but there's a distinct lack of opposition according to the formbook, although Ample Plenty may be an improver. She showed little at two but was far better in coming home steadily when fifth of 13 at Lingfield on the all-weather latest. She may well improve again. Denis The Diva completes the shortlist as the best of his juvenile form gives him a shout on a first start for a new yard.
