Verdict
Pat Shanahan sent Set In Stone to Hamilton three times in the summer and she came away with two victories before doing even better to score at Newbury. She'll be thereabouts again but another 8lb rise makes things much tougher. Fellow raider Midnitemudcrabs hails from a yard who place their horses very well, though her overall form looks just short of what's required. CONTENTMENT won a Goodwood maiden in May and though not making the expected progress she's still on a fair mark and there could be more to come so she's given the nod. Invermere is consistent enough though her best form has been on faster ground while Hidden Rebel hasn't won for over a year and is still higher in the weights.
