Several of these ran in the Windsor sprint won by Udontdou last month. Open Wide fared best in third but does seem best on that track. MOUNTAIN PEAK wasn’t far behind and would have finished closer had he got a clear run. An easy winner at Haydock on his only previous try over 5f, Ed Walker’s three-year-old is worth an interest in this. Moonraker likes it here and was a ready winner of a competitive affair on Fibresand 12 days ago while Bahamian Sunrise has placed at Epsom and Sandown recently. Shamshon, Erissimus Maximus and Choosey are others worth a second look in a tricky finale.
