Verdict
BEN CEE PEE M attracted significant market support on his reappearance at Ffos Las but could find nothing in the closing stages having loomed up menacingly off the final turn. A rare runner here for Oliver Sherwood, he will strip fitter today and can recoup losses. Smokey George won a couple of times on an easy surface last winter and his young rider claims 7lb, but Well Hello There needs to improve significantly on what he's shown so far to figure and the handicapper appears to have got to Overbranch. Benmadigan isn't badly treated but may find this ground too testing and more interesting is Amir Pasha, who will like the ground and is fit from a campaign on the Flat.
