Freedom And Wheat’s earlier double came over 7f while Woodside Wonder’s placed effort here came back in August. Latent Heat drops down a grade back on the all-weather and is 4lb higher than last month’s win at Goodwood while Sir Hamilton has gone close to ending a long losing with a couple of placed efforts including over track and trip last time. But MOONSHINE MO is having only his second start handicapping and was doing his best work at the finish when placed over 7f at Chelmsford. He gets the vote attempting today’s trip for the first time.
