Verdict
SEA OF HEAVEN (NAP) has been runner-up in handicaps at Lingfield and Sandown in his last two starts. He should be suited by this first try over 2m and his trainer has a terrific strike-rate here with his three-year-olds so he gets the nod ahead of Enchanted Garden, who proved his versatility when winning over fences last month. He was second off this mark on the Flat last year and makes more appeal than Sandown third Arcamante, who was beaten twice off a lower mark here last year. The form book suggests Rayadour and Bell Weir have a bit to find on these terms.
