Verdict
PEACE SEEKER started a well backed favourite in a conditions event over C&D on Wednesday and duly obliged. Eased down in the closing stages, he's clearly on the up and may be getting off light with a 6lb penalty. Doctor Hilary should make race of it though as he scored over track and trip with Bateleur behind before finishing a close-up sixth here last time, while Vhujon is only 2lb higher than his win over 7f at this course in October. Silvee is another with claims if forgiven her latest poor effort at Lingfield.
