In depth

Verdict

PERIPETEIA has placed in all four outings and this is her easiest task so far. She’s fitted with a hood having missed out by only a head at Wolverhampton a week ago and can confirm running with True Warrior and Typewritten. The latter is a likely improver and looks the biggest threat given both Dolly Drake and Law Brook Belle have yet to show any worthwhile form.
