Verdict

With the yard in such good form DREAM FOCUS is taken to build on a number of promising and solid starts since May to get off the mark here. The Jim Bolger-trained four-year-old was hampered at Roscommon last month before finishing behind Roibeard at Gowran Park on Saturday but over 4L clear of the rest of the 13-runner field. Keep Believing, Serefeli and Delegating can all hit the frame doing all their best work at the business end of proceedings.
