Atlantic Dream was beaten a long way when third on his debut at Nottingham, but the three-year-old did look as if he would improve considerably for the experience. Arctic Mountain is a newcomer to note being related to numerous winners and he is worthy of a market inspection, as is ALEXANDRETTA. A beaten favourite over seven furlongs at Salisbury recently, the extra furlong and return to the all-weather might see her get off the mark.
