Verdict
If back to his best Pieter Brueghel would easily beat these but today he may have to play second fiddle to stable companion Trinculo, with Millinsky the best of the others. Trinculo has been in great form of late and was just touched off by Don Pele at Wolverhampton early this month. If in the same mood he will be very hard to beat. Pieter Brueghel has been rated in the 100's in the past and his last victory came off a mark of 86 and so he isn't badly handicapped today. He should be involved in the finish as should Millinsky who is hard to win with but she rarely gets beaten far. Top-weight Moorhouse Lad and Anne Stokell's Pawan are two others worthy of respect, but Trinculo looks to hold the best recent form and he gets our vote.
