Relentless Dreamer 9/2 Bet365

We have some really nice young horses at Doncaster on Tuesday but probably not Nap material due to the limited value on offer, there is an inspection anyway so i'll stick to sunny Taunton.
Usually a Paul Nicholls benefit but happy to take his Orbasa on as he's about as reliable as me these days. I like Relentless Dreamer at the top of the handicap, he was a useful novice and then was pitched in against Listed and Class 2 rivals and seemed to lose his confidence. 
As a consequence he dropped a bit in the weights, was lowered into Class 3 races and now looks back on the up. He won last time out under this rider and should be able to cope with the weight rise as he has just stayed in the same grade. He is a C/D winner and gets a bit of decent ground which he would appreciate.

3:20 Taunton OPENING BATSMAN  7/4 Bet365, Coral, Ladbrokes and William Hill

This race should be about Opening Batsman and Unioniste. Both have a chance and i go for Opening Batsman, Harry Fry says this lad is ready to go, Michael Legg gets on well with him, and if he retains any ability after his lay off he should be capable of winning this event.
