Way Of The World drops back in distance and races off a 4lb higher mark than when beating a lesser field here last month. Miracle Cure didn’t run up to his best form when favourite at Wincanton last time but earlier efforts give him every chance and the blinkers are left off today. Yorgonnahearmeroar is unexposed and makes his handicap debut off a fair mark but LILLINGTON can confirm recent running with Miracle Cure and go one better than last time when he was only headed close home.
