Glen Moss has plenty of fancy entries but was a little disappointing when failing to land the odds on similar ground at Haydock six weeks ago and may be one to be wary of at a short price. Accession didn't do a lot wrong on his debut but this looks a stronger contest, while Rocky Reef was staying on late over 7f at Kempton so may not be suited by this drop in distance. Hughie Morrison has a decent strike rate with his juvenile runners here and SMACKER could add to that tally. His dam is a half-sister to useful sprinter Himalya and his sire Redback won a Group 3 over 7f here as a three-year-old. Fellow newcomers Foot Tapper and Royal Prospector may prove the pick of the remainder.
