A tight race on official figures and PEACE SEEKER is no more than a tentative selection. He was headed in the closing stages over 7f here a week ago but may well hang on for victory this time with a furlong less to travel. Ayr 5f winner Nafa finished closer at Wolverhampton last time and could figure, while Welsh Dancer looks to have place claims in this company. Young Simon may do better back over today's distance and it will also be no surprise to see an improved effort from Mustafeed.
