Thirsk

Only five runners but this is a tight contest with several serious contenders. Rawalpindi Express (second choice) and Port Darwin were strong at the finish when winning on their most recent starts at Carlisle and Musselburgh respectively, and both should go well again. Real Man tackles a nursery for the first time and may be unexposed, but the vote goes to his stablemate DUNKELD DREAMER who ran well at Beverley last week and should be well suited by today's step up to 1m.[Richard O'Brien]
