Another lowbrow event and we will side with Summer Bounty to pick off Scaramouchsca and Wizard Looking. The veteran has had a couple of pipe openers on the all-weather and having a creditable fourth at Kempton over an inadequate trip, this combination of trip and ground should suit. Scaramoushca hasn't shown a lot to date. That said, Giles Bravery's team are in good form and the market is watched. Wizard Looking is unproven on the surface but with his sire's infulence, it would be a surprise were he not able to act upon it. York Cliff stays further than this and acts on the ground. Medieval Maiden has ability but she is particularly quirky and events look to rest very much in the mind. Amwell Brave has to overcome a losing run while Salut Saint Cloud is a regular at this level and might just need two miles these days. Of the outsiders, Laurentian Lad looked as if this trip might provide him with suitable opportunities and he is noted accordingly. Aqua Pura is similarly watched from the Curley Leisure string. A trappy getting out stakes and Summer Bounty is put forward to minimal levels.
