Dream to deliver at Sandown

-

DREAMWEAVE­R can make the most of his bottom weight in the Fizz Fridays At Slug And Lettuce Handicap at Sandown.

Ed Walker’s charge arrives in excellent heart having won two of three starts so far this year, most recently claiming victory a four-length victory at Haydock last month.

While that was only an ordinary handicap, Dreamweave­r did not enjoy the best of runs, getting involved in some scrimmagin­g with a couple of furlongs to run before needing to be switched for a run.

He could well be a shade better than the result suggest taking that into account and appears to be on an upward trajectory now.

Vasari looked a bit green at the finish on his debut but the experience should stand him in good stead for the Slug And Lettuce Christmas Party EBF Maiden Stakes.

A well-bred individual, he was smartly away at Chelmsford and shapely nicely for Sir Michael Stoute despite being beaten two and a quarter lengths in third.

Rock The Cradle has yet to hit the target in six starts, but his moment can arrive in the Slug & Lettuce Afternoon Tea Handicap.

He has shown up well on each of his three handicap outings to date and while he has crept up 4lb to his current perch of 73, he should be more than capable dropped back to a mile after not quite seeing out 10 furlongs last time.

Mister Chiang can make it a hattrick for Mark Johnston in the Marathonbe­t “Better Odds Mean Bigger Winnings’’ Handicap at Brighton.
