Verdict

After beating a dual subsequent winner last time out, PICTORIAL looks the percentage call in another competitive handicap. Jabal Tariq and Bullet Man are respected. Although not obviously well treated for his handicap debut, the pick should have plenty of improvement left after just two career starts and is in the right hands to thrive. Jabal Tariq and Bullet Man are both in good form right now and race off feasible marks so warrant a second look. Grodonsville has more to do with four pounds extra on his back than when scoring in similar company last time and we can also put Persian Peril in that category. Not the easiest race to finish the day with and we just recommend Pictorial.
