A competitive handicap full of unexposed three-year-old runners. Simon and Ed Crisford train BOAT Set Weights AIN (3) who looked in need of the 1m4f journey when denied by a useful performer at Leicester last time. This opening mark may challenge however he is open to considerable improvement and could be up to the task. Dangers include the Aidan O'Brien-trained SERIOUS CONTENDER (5) and the William Haggas chance MERCHANT (8). The former made a winning handicap debut over 1m2f at Leopardstown 81 days ago and may provide a bold bid now stretching out in trip off a 8lb higher mark while the latter relished this distance beating a nice type at York in May and cannot be ignored up 9lb. MASAI MOON (1) and GUNSHIP (10) are others to note.
