SOLENT GATEWAY shaped as if ahead of his mark on debut for Hugo Palmer, then failed to settle in the Chester Cup, so he's worth a chance to gain his second course win under a useful claimer. Mascat was doing some good late work at Ascot last time, so he's considered a threat, while Boss Power is respected on the back of a luckless outing.
