Summer Moon has a penalty to carry for his Windsor victory, but he was impressive there and may be the best of three stable representatives. Dark Lochnagar and Beechwood Jude give their trainer a strong hand, but the vote goes to LAAFY, who shaped as though a stamina test would suit when winning over 1m2f last time and should take some beating on his handicap debut. Skymax and Dancin Boy also have decent claims.
