The top weights may dominate this nursery. PRETENCE knows her way around here and gets the nod with Harry Davies taking a handy 3 lb off. Commander Crouch appeals as a likely improver now stepping up in trip for his nursery debut and is second choice under Buick. Making Dreams is quite closely matched with the selection on C&D selling form earlier in the year and may prove best of the remainder.
