Verdict
PERFECT SOLDIER arrives in the best form having won over course and distance a fortnight ago. He beat Mr Coco Bean, Whatwouldyouknow and Mad Artymaise on that occasion and has little to fear from the rest of these on recent form. Tafsir may do better back over this shorter trip and Hostelry has returned to a winning mark.
