Olivers Mount is now 9lb higher than his only win to date after recording a string of placed efforts. Polydamos is similarly frustrating and made the frame yet again last week having earlier finished runner-up to My Renaissance in a Class 7 event over track and trip. The latter makes more appeal than Addikt, who ended a two-year barren spell in the same lowly grade here on his latest start. Kyle Of Bute pops up at this level when the mood takes him but a token vote goes to ENTRAPPING as he ran well over 1m4f at this track last month and this shorter trip will suit.
