Lyndon B faces a stiff task giving weight to the three-year-olds and Caragio also looks up against it. Glenfinnan won at Yarmouth around this time last year but was behind Tafreej on better terms at York two weeks ago. Out Of Shadows beat Kiaraad a length at Newmarket last month when conceding 3lb but SAXON KING (NAP) has contested some tough handicaps since scoring at Newmarket and Chester earlier in the season. He’s been holding his own and is sailing in calmer waters here. Sea Of Thieves had little chance in a Group 3 here last time and still has time on her side.
