Progressed again when winning 9-runner maiden (13/8) at Doncaster (6f, heavy) a fortnight ago, leading 2f out. Makes handicap debut and has to be taken seriously with further improvement on the cards.

Left her first 2 runs behind when making all in 5f Hamilton maiden in June but has been well beaten on both subsequent starts in listed company, latest at Newbury in August. Makes all-weather debut and needs to get back on track now handicapping.

Laurens Dream⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Billy Garritty| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 69| C

15/2

Better than ever since switched to all-weather, defying weakness in the betting for the second time in 5 days to double her tally at this course (6f) last week, again having little to spare at the line. Up another 4 lb but she's progressive so would be folly to rule out in her hat-trick bid.

Forecasts

So Darn Hot (8/13), Commander Atkinson (3/1), Yes I'm Mali (11/2), Laurens Dream (15/2), Winchurch (17/2), I Got Soul (14/1), Cressida Wildes (20/1)

SO DARN HOT opened his account at Doncaster a fortnight ago and with further improvement on the cards now switched to handicaps, Kevin Philippart de Foy's charge is fancied to follow up at the expense of Commander Atkinson, who has been beaten less than a length on his last couple of starts and should be bang there again nudged up 1 lb. The hat-trick-seeking Laurens Dream completes the shortlist up in grade.
