    Verdict

    Following his victory over former 400 metre Olympian Jamie Baulch at Kempton in a publicity stunt PEOPLETON BROOK can build on his recent form against his equine foes and chalk up a win while Volito has improved in a couple of start this term and Pragmatist might be interesting after some recent good efforts. Having gone close off the mark a few time in the recent past the is on a long losing streak. His narrow reverse from 1lb higher in the weights last time offers hope that he is still in form and in this line-up he has a good chance. Volito missed out by a nose when under this mark on his last run and with an improved effort on his seasonal bow he is very much feared. Pragmatist returned well from his seasonal break before banishing a slightly poor effort by finding just the one too good last time but he'll have to show a little bit more. The Old Boy The Tatling is still looking well weighted and over his best trip might have each-way claims but to win it Peopleton Brook is given another chance.
