Dandys Derriere returns to his winning trip having finished runner-up in a handicap over 7f at Sandown. He carries a penalty back at this level and PURE DREAMER is preferred. The latter could only manage fourth in a Class 2 nursery at York but will find this easier and can open his account. Twilight Calls showed some promise at Newbury on his debut and may get involved while Headora is related to a host of winners and Dark Shift is another newcomer to note.
