In depth
Verdict
PEREZ is not without his quirks but if he can be persuaded into concentrating his efforts for the full two miles, he is not without hope from this very lowly rating. Paul Gallagher claims 7lb. We're Delighted has taken on much better grade in the past and ran a respectable enough race in non-selling company at Worcester. Daraybad's deterioration in the handicap has now reached unbelievable proportions. Course and distance winner, Guerilla, is one to note if the market speaks in his favour. Bari Bay is a long standing maiden having his second outing for Michael Blake having shown little of note for Seamus Mullins.
