Verdict
PERSEID hasn’t raced off a mark this low in well over two years. He has been placed in three of his five starts over fences so has ability and could be the value against penalised course winner Derrynane, who has not raced over a trip this far before. Copt Hill and Toarmandowithlove are not improving with age and it’s difficult to recommend Flying Verse and Devils Water on recent form.
