Verdict

WAR CHARIOT is sprint bred but made his debut over an extended 7f at Beverley, where he ran green. He’ll know more today and could find the necessary improvement to beat Marronnier, who blew the start when favourite at Beverley last month but was still only beaten a length. Water Diviner is back in this grade for the first time since winning at Wolverhampton in July. He looks a threat to all with Rossa Ryan’s claim helping with the penalty. Castle Quarter was third at Beverley in August then missed the break at Musselburgh and that looks better form than Eye Of The Water’s win in a Ffos Las nursery.
