Verdict

TIDAL WATCH has had a Flat outing since failing to complete the three-timer when third at Bangor but it was still a decent effort for which he was nudged up 1lb. This is a potentially tricky affair in which to make a chasing debut but he was impressive when scoring twice at Kempton in the spring and faces a similar kind of track here. Jonjo O'Neill Jr claims a helpful 3lb and he's a risk worth taking especially if conditions remain good. Asylo also tackles fences for the first time and will also be suited by trip and ground so makes considerable appeal. Francky Du Berlais shaped well on chasing debut behind the talented Ennistown and completes the shortlist.
