Lucky's Dream arrives in excellent form after a couple of successes at this trip and is expected to go well on his hat-trick bid despite topweight and a 10lb rise for the two victories. Banksy's Art and Il Sicario harbour place claims whilst Greyzee is worth noting from the foot of the weights taking on his elders for the first time. However, three-year-old LIEUTENANT CONDE showed plenty of promise as a juvenile and did well to overcome trouble in running to score on seasonal reappearance. Admittedly, it is a concern that he's unproven on Turf but he looks a progressive sort at this level and is a risk worth taking. Subliminal has place claims in an open contest.
