KING OF EDEN is a handicap blot and can confine Tadalavil and Cheyenne Red to minor roles. After just nine career starts it's reasonable to expect further improvement from King Of Eden who is due to race from an 8lb higher mark in future following a decisive six length success at Carlisle. That was his second win of the season and of his career and he shouldn't be long in making it three. Michael Dods has been enjoying a decent spell and Cheyenne Red shouldn't be long in winning having improved from his first start to his second this season; he runs this track well but may find that at least one rival is better handicapped. He was over three lengths behind Tadalavil on his seasonal reappearance but that one is 4lbs higher and more exposed and is no certainty to confirm the form. Dickie Le Davoir is running well and could challenge for minor honours but King Of Eden should take all the beating as long as he hasn't left his race behind at Carlisle.
