        Verdict

        SILCA'S DREAM was just touched off over 5f at Bath on his second start. The Oasis Dream colt should appreciate the step back up to 6f here and sets the standard. Scott Dixon has been firing in the winners lately so his filly Robyn, fourth on her debut at Southwell, has to be worth a second look but Exotic Guest is proving difficult to place and may lack the scope of a few of these. Moe's Place is a half-brother to a 6f winner and may well prove the pick of the newcomers but Betzyoucan looks the type to flourish on the all-weather over the winter and Barbs Princess may need more time.
