Age Of Wisdom has been in fine form over 2m on the all-weather though has yet to win on Turf in this country. Chivers carries 6lb extra for winning over today’s trip at Salisbury but both Tiar Na Nog and Multigifted went close on their latest starts with the latter narrowly beaten by LE TORRENT at Lingfield. Simon Dow’s charge missed the whole of last year but has won both starts since returning to action and the manner of his latest cosy win suggests he can defy a further 3lb rise.
