Verdict
Eddies Jewel can take the honours in this very weak event, Pappy and Heartbeat look the pick of his rivals. This son of Presidium ran well at Leicester last time on unsuitable ground, finishing an excellent fourth behind Make It Happen. We should see some improvement on this faster surface and he looks the one to be on. Pappy was staying on well over the seven furlong trip last time at Brighton when fourth to Rathmullan. That was an improved performance and he looks set to run a bold race over today's distance. Heartbeat is far from consistent but is entitled to go close on the pick of her winter form. In a wide open affair Susiedil and Fly Back can also get involved in the finish, but with everything in his favour today Eddies Jewel looks the best proposition.
