Dropped 4lb, LILI WEN FACH kept on once headed over this trip at Chepstow. Her stable is in good form and she was placed on soft going at York in June. Alfies Watch is among the least exposed but didn’t run very well on good to soft at Salisbury on his debut. A case can be made for Bartat and Global Agreement while Santorini Sal made the frame over track and trip in August. Twice As Likely would also have claims on his win at Newbury early in the summer.
