Verdict

WEDDELL SEA, a decent performer on the Flat in France, was having just his second start over timber when just failing to overhaul Rebel Step at Limerick in April. Suited by today's likely conditions he should have the edge over Wrecking Ball Paul, who led for a long way at Killarney when attracting support. Cedar Rapids wasn't far behind in that latter event and has had a run on the Flat subsequently while Edge Of My Seat is one to note in the market having run well on the Flat in recent weeks.
