CRYPTOS DREAM (4) is closing in on a win, last time out finishing third over 2000m at Chelmsford when just 1.75 lengths from the winner. Nice alley and worth serious consideration. STRATEGIC FORTUNE (1) progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1900m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Finds an easier assignment and can get the job done. SIR LAURENCE GRAFF (6) has been thereabouts without winning, the most recent effort a third at this track over 1700m when he was beaten 0.8 lengths. Overdue and is right in contention. THE PUG (3) made progress last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1900m at this track. Well placed to feature in the finish.
