HOPEWELL ROCK (3) wasn't disgraced when third tackling ground that was likely too quick at Bath delivering handicap debut. Trained by George Boughey and handled conditions well delivering first two outings. Retains plenty of potential now back on an easier surface. William Haggas trains Windsor novice winner FIRST PRINCIPLE (8) who warrants respect making handicap debut climbing up to 1m2f adopting first-time tongue-tie. CASTLE STUART (4) provided pleasing initial stable outing when third in a competitive York handicap last month. Can remain in the mix off 2lb higher. Others to note include both DEVIL'S ADVOCATE (2) and MOLVENO (1).
