Verdict
Most of these have been struggling to get their heads in front this year but Mandy's Boy was successful in a Redcar claimer last month, though was well beaten over a longer trip at Sandown last time. Summer Dream can go well, despite top weight, and Tilstarr looked on the way back at Newmarket in July having won over 7f here last winter. But AINT GOT A SCOOBY is a lot better than he showed on soft ground at Epsom earlier this month, as he proved previously at Sandown - he's worth another try on the Polytrack. Canadian Run, Magical Rose and Chepstow runner-up Bursledon may be best of the rest.
