Ascend Sales Valley Pearl (LR)
The John McArdle-trained colt Doubt I’m Dreaming was most impressive in winning here on debut. He was ridden patiently by Jamie Mott in a strongly run race and after being last early on, he improved to be seventh (between runners) before making his move at the home turn. He dashed to the front at the 100m and then drew away to score easily, looking the makings of a quality colt. Showtime began well and then eased to race in fourth place, one out and one back, before moving up (under riding) at the home turn. He then fought on again in the straight to take a good second, looking suited to further. Muraaqeb worked in the early stages from his inside barrier (1) to hold the lead. He was then pressured again from the 600m (by Coruscate) and understandably tired over the closing stages after his early efforts to finish third.
