MALAYSIAN BOLEH was placed at Brighton during the week and drops down a grade for this. He may come out best given Whaleweigh Station has just the one win in 35 starts and that was back in 2014. Packing won at Wolverhampton in April and ran well here last time while Ebbisham won at Bath earlier but was tailed off at Newmarket recently. Gunman has been well beaten in a couple of subsequent starts having also scored at Bath but Copper Cavalier was not beaten far in fourth over track and trip last time. Cyflymder was due to run at Doncaster yesterday.
