Reasonable tempo with Life Sentence probably leading but a few others should keep him honest. APPPLEBY (9) is rarely far away but has struggled to break through. Racing in tougher class though and this looks ideal. Gets her chance. SHOWBOAT (3) returned with a nice run in a BM64 and strips fitter. Is a second-up winner and looks a top chance to go one better. DREAMS COME TRUE (8) is a former Kiwi mare who had three spaced runs for the new yard before another break. Has plenty of ability and resumes well back in class. Don't underestimate if she's on song. THINKHARDANDFAST (5) was a fresh-up winner in slightly easier company y but at least in winning form. Runs on and can measure up again. EYES WIDE SHUT (10) is also racing well lately and is a key player on best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Apppleby gets her chance.
