Verdict
Consistant is rarely beaten far though he's won three races in 34 starts and is still a maiden on Turf. Greek Spirit hasn't been seen since landing a Polytrack handicap in October and is likely to need the run and is much worse off at the weights with Logans Lad, who was beaten just over a length. Dylan's Centenary was well supported when his saddle slipped at Salisbury though his best run at come in a Polytrack seller in May. New Rich hails from a yard in form and isn't without a chance but it's difficult to get away from PENINA, who will like this stiff track having finished close up at Beverley and Newcastle recently.
