Simcock dreaming of July Cup glory

DAVID Simcock is confident his star turn Dream Ahead is ready to show his true colours in today’s Darley July Cup at Newmarket.

The Diktat colt enjoyed a superb juvenile campaign, completing a hat-trick of victories with a breathtaking display in the Middle Park Stakes on the Rowley Mile.

He blotted his copybook when expected to make Frankel work on his final two-year-old start in the Dewhurst, but connections still harboured Classic ambitions.
