Verdict

The three-year-old Stanarley Pic is taking on older horses for the first time with a 6lb penalty for last week's victory over slightly shorter here and will find this tougher. HARRISON'S CAVE was gaining his first victory for three years when Joe Fanning brought him with a perfectly times challenge over 1m5f at Ayr. He's up 3lb but this doesn't look any more difficult and he can go in again. Eilean Mor put some moderate efforts behind him with a comfortable success here last week and a penalty is unlikely to prevent another big run while Amazing Blue Sky is only 1lb higher than his last victory at Thirsk in June and Connor Beasley's claim suggests he's on a fair mark.
