PRESBYTERIAN NUN may be good enough to make a winning return to the handicap ranks but Boz looks sure to run a big race and there could be more to come from Sevenna. The selection's connections have been trying to pinch a bit of Black Type with their filly who has had her last six starts in Pattern company. She failed to make any impression on her two starts in the handicap ranks but is an improved performer and may find sufficient improvement from her run at Nottingham to take a hand. Boz showed up well for a long way over twelve furlongs on his return in a race that also featured Night Crescendo, Record Breaker and Sereth. He's a winner over this trip and has leading claims. Sevenna was some way behind Wine 'n Dine at Kempton but she has the scope for further improvement and has plenty of ability as she showed when third to the Chester Cup winner at Haydock last term. The more exposed Mighty Moon and the tough Victoria Montoya also enter calculations in a race where the weather could have a big bearing on the chances of the main protagonists. The forecast may be unsettled but we've settled for Presbyterian Nun.
