Three-year-olds have a very good recent record in this and Aristovic, a winner here last month, should give a good account despite being 9lb higher. Chilean ran a fine race at Galway last month and any further rain puts him in the picture but a chance is taken on BANTRY, who has been noted staying on strongly over 7f and can make the step-up in trip count. Scipio's Defence makes her handicap debut after the requisite three runs and is one to note in the market.
