Credit The Giver looked a certain future winner when placed twice in the summer and came from too far off the pace on his debut over this trip here last time. The former UK-based Brosnan ran very well for new connections over a mile here a fortnight ago and looks on a nice mark but that latter remark certainly applies to GUN SHOOT. She'll do better now back over her favourite trip and though not a regular winner she looks well handicapped at her best. Gold Not Silver was sent to Wolverhampton last week and was a bit unlucky in-running so she could attract support.
