Verdict

MOABIT has now won five of his nine starts over timber after last month’s cosy win at Chepstow. He’s upped a further 6lb but is still preferred to the more exposed Sea Wall. The latter bids for a hat-trick of course and distance wins and should make another bold bid having beaten previous winner Show On The Road on his penultimate outing. Watcombe Heights was runner-up over a longer trip here recently and is preferred to Another Crick and Catchin Time of the remainder.
