Four On Eight had been racing in Bahrain before finishing tailed off at Chelmsford and there is now a major doubt if he can run up to mark of 82. SEE THE SEA is preferred despite not racing since May as he landed a double last year and should get involved on these terms. Moltoir won at Beverley in June and also drops in class. He should have the edge over What Wonders Weave, who won a seller at Hamilton last time, while it’s something of a surprise to see Thiobraid Arann in plating company having made a promising debut at Hamilton though Paul Hanagan’s presence suggests he could go well.
