Verdict
Having opened his account at the fifth time of asking, Wolverhampton winner Arishka's Dream is still open to improvement. The son of Dream Ahead may not enjoy such an easy time out in front, though, with preference for fellow handicap debutant ESCAPE PLAN. Tom Ward's inmate found only a horse now rated 97 too good at Dunstall Park when last seen in September and an official rating of 69 could prove lenient. Mister Moet is the pick of the remainder.
Expert View Verdict
Far Too Fizzy went too fast last time when dropping to 5f but she'd been progressive previously at this trip and could bounce back. There's a couple of unexposed handicap debutant's against her though, in the shape of Yes Waliim and ESCAPE PLAN. The last-named earns the vote on account of him having improved with each of his three starts as a juvenile, with his conqueror at Wolverhampton on his most recent outing September winning five times since and now being rated in the 90s. He's been gelded since and now wears a first-time tongue-tie, so there's plenty to like. Yes Waliim is related to a Listed winner at the trip and has undergone a wind op ahead of this handicap debut, so is worth considering too.
