Moshe has been disappointing this year and was beaten in a claimer on his latest start at Catterick. Heska reserves his best for Wolverhampton but Kirtling won a lesser contest over track and trip in June so could go well while The Third Man is probably worth a try over this longer distance after a close-up second over 1m2f at Newmarket, though is 3lb higher. MORUADH (NAP) has failed to beat a rival in her last two starts but returns to the scene of her victory in a maiden here in June and still has time on her side. She is taken to bounce back to form today as faster going is a plus.
