Only a handful of these make any serious appeal and it's YORADREAMER who gets the nod to go one better than his recent hurdling debut with improvement on the cards. Henry de Bromhead's string are starting to click into gear and Joueuse Royale can give the selection most to think about returning from 6 months off, with Mister Box and Love At Sea taken to fight out minor honours.
