Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Only Dream Big
Only Dream Big heads this Class 6 nine-furlong contest at Musselburgh on good ground with a clear edge over the field, sitting five pounds ahead of the nearest rival Amber Hamur and eight pounds clear of the trio of Vitality, Positive Thoughts and Horwich, giving connections every reason for optimism. Amber Hamur and Vitality will be the principal dangers should Only Dream Big fail to reproduce their best, but on these figures the selection looks well positioned to dominate. Only Dream Big is the pick.
