C&D winner Lotara has been running a little better than her finishing positions suggest and she may finish closer this time but a chance is taken with DARK SIDE DREAM. The five-year-old may have been unlucky not to win at least one of his last four races and the booking of David Probert suggests the yard mean business. Tailwind is still low mileage and the drop in trip could bring out improvement in him. 1. Dark Side Dream 2. Lotara 3. Tailwind
