SAFARI DREAM escapes a penalty for last week's Salisbury success and he will prove a tough nut to crack with Oisin Murphy booked. The 5-y-o is winless so far on the all-weather but he's only had half-a-dozen bites at the cherry on synthetics and has performed well both here and at Southwell already this year. Dark Dreamer gets the nod for forecast purposes on the back of an encouraging effort here last month. Bill Plumb and Forever Noah are others to consider.
