TO CHASE A DREAM crucially jumped better under a change of tactics when edged out only late on at Wetherby 4 weeks ago and, having proven most consistent to date, this could be the day he deservedly opens his account. Diamond Koda, three times a runner-up in bumpers, and Micro Millions head up the dangers, with Yalla Habibi another who is respected in the opener.
