Chaplin Bay wasn't winning out of turn at Sandown but is now 4lb higher which means he is worse off at the weights than when only third behind Buccaneers Vault at Musselburgh previously. Previous course and distance winner Space War has been running well enough lately to merit consideration but Comino has been well below his best this year and More Beau tackles 7f for the first time since well beaten on his debut, though will enjoy the going. MARBOOH made all to beat subsequent winner Trenches and Run To The Hills in a driving finish at Newcastle in June. He's not been disgraced in a couple of runs over a mile on Turf since and can confirm the form with the third, who is having his first run on this surface today.
