Dream Force hard to beat in the George Ryder
DREAM FORCE looks hard to beat in Saturday’s George Ryder Stakes at Rosehill. The John Thompson trained gelding loves Rosehill. He has won three times there and gained five placings from nine starts on the track. One of his wins was in this race last year. DALESAN and DAWN PASSAGE are two dangers; they are both second up just like DreamForce. Dalesan probably needs further but still I would not write him off as 1500m is an awkward distance.

Addeybb & Verry Eleegant do battle again
ADDEYBB won last year’s Ranvet Stakes and there is no reason why he cannot do so again as he has raced well against good company in the UK. VERRY ELEEGANT is a Group 1 class needs a soft track I think to beat Addeybb. Having said that Addeybb does not mind it wet either. I am going for him to win again.
