Pebrock, Najca De Thaix and Star Galaxy are three against the field in a tough race to call for punters and the narrow vote is given to Pebrock. The selection was a fair fourth behind Quilinton under similar conditions last time out. He looks sure to improve for the switch to fences and should be watched in the market. Najca De Thaix rates the main danger on his best form but he was very disappointing for no apparent reason last time out so can not be put forward with much confidence. Star Galaxy was second behind My Condor last time and is another with place claims but he is very hard to win with. Pebese hails from a yard in form so is worth a cautionary look in the market while Cleymor House now looks in the handicappers grip. Pebrock is our idea of the winner and gets the pick.
