    Verdict

    Assimilation has been raised 5lb for last month’s course and distance success but ASAD is less exposed. The latter beat Revolutionise over 7f here on his first outing since 2019 and debut for Mick Appleby and is taken to defy a hike in the weights with further progress expected on his second start after wind surgery. Papa Stour is preferred to stablemate Al Muffrih over today’s trip while Amaysmont gets help from the saddle with the smart apprentice Laura Pearson claiming 7lb.
