Verdict

A drop to a stiff 5f proved right up DREAM DEAL's street at Beverley and he might go in again if in similar form. Queen Sana is holding her form well but may have to settle for second again. April's all-the-way C&D scorer Betweenthesticks is well drawn to readopt front-running tactics and could also play a prominent role.
