Verdict

Even Bolder popped-up at 20/1 last time to end a three year barren spell. He's easy to oppose off a higher mark and DREAMS OF GLORY is the speculative selection. A winner at Bath in April, this looks easier than his recent assignments and it could be his turn again today. Crimson Queen has slipped down the weights and could bounce back at any time while the same comment applies to Sole Danser. Ryan Style may prove best of the rest after a recent pipe-opener at Goodwood.
