Dumbarton scored at Windsor for Sir Michael Stoute last summer and Gordon Elliott will undoubtedly turn him into a hurdler though he's probably on a confidence-regaining mission after falling at Down Royal a couple of weeks ago. Invincible Soul, a close third in a Listed contest at Goodwood for Richard Hannon last May, has been very disappointing subsequently but won't get many better opportunities though DREAM APPLAUSE is in better form and is handed the vote. She made all to land a fillies' maiden over 6f at Leopardstown a month ago before finding 1m1f stretching her stamina at Ballinrobe and this should be her trip. The remainder are very difficult to fancy.
