Verdict
SEA WALL was always going well when scoring on heavy going at Lingfield last month. That was only his fourth run over hurdles so he's probably capable of defying a 5lb rise in the weights. Thundering Home has gone up 7lb since his latest second at Exeter and that looks harsh. Tom Bellamy takes off 5lb but he looks less of a danger than the penalised Lingfield winner Barton Rose, who has 7lb claimer Martin McIntyre on board. Chesil Beach Boy is the class act in this but is now a 12-year-old and he hasn't won in more than three years.
