Hint of promise over 2m4f at Worcester in July; could be a contender now back up in trip

Four-time Flat winner; has run well in first two handicap hurdles; holds solid claims

Well beaten on both stable starts but top trainer may find the key at some stage

8yo; returns from absence and remains lightly raced, but no impact in first two handicaps

Well beaten on last month's stable/handicap debut; hard to be confident after that

Hasn't shown much but goes handicapping off a lowly mark and a market check is advised
4	A Day To Dream Bay J:Aaron Anderson(5) T:Mike Sowersby	J:Aaron Anderson(5) T:Mike Sowersby	162	—	52U335	92	99	76	38d	—	—	+14	15	20.00/1	80/1 1%
Tailed off on final run for Ollie Pears but fair 3rd previously; e-w shout if back on song
