Verdict

PEABERRY wasn't disgraced when finishing fifth on his first start at Southwell and Tom Ward's colt can take advantage of what looks to be a very winnable contest on paper. Javelot is capable of being in the mix after his fourth at Yarmouth a couple of weeks ago, while others for the shortlist include newcomer Maliqui and L B Double U.

Top Tip: Peaberry (7)
Watch out for: Javelot (4)

MALIQUI is an interesting newcomer in a race where there is little strong form on offer. A 38,000gns Sands Of Mali gelding, he has a useful 7f pedigree on his dam's side and comes from the in-form Charlie Fellows yard, while Oisin Murphy is a notable booking for his debut. Peaberry was beaten by six lengths when fifth at Southwell on debut but should improve for the experience, while Javelot also has scope for progress after finishing a seven-length fourth at Yarmouth first time out.
