Verdict
Some one-paced and thoroughly exposed stayers are facing the starter in this but Wordiness will probably be happy to feel the sand beneath his hooves again after a couple of runs over marathon trips at Bath. Marshall Aid is now 0-16 but usually makes the frame and it would be no surprise if he finally got his head in front in a race like this. YASIR never seems to run two races alike but has shown a liking for this track in the past - he’s not badly treated if on his best behaviour.
