Formscan - Rosieisme Darling has been in decent heart on the all-weather of late, supplementing a victory at Lingfield with a respectable third at Wolverhampton. She shouldn't be inconvenienced by a return to turf, but it could be worth taking a chance on FAITHFUL DREAM in first-time cheekpieces. The Dream Ahead colt lurks on a dangerous mark, with Mason Paetel good value for his 5lb claim. Staniel Cay and Maid In Devon are others of interest.
