Verdict

This looks competitive for a race of this type. Secret Look won a handicap at Windsor 10 days ago and Malaysian Boleh has been knocking on the door. Thee And Me won over course and distance in April and has run well enough since to suggest he can get involved. City Of Angkor Wat returned to winning ways in a seller over track and trip last month but this is a much tougher assignment. CLAYMORE has been a little disappointing but patently failed to handle Brighton's bends and gradients on his latest start and may be worth one more chance dropping into this grade. Bath second Head Space looks best of the rest.
