In depth
Verdict
A runner-up back in maiden company last time, PEACHEY CARNEHAN should have the measure of these. Mike Attwater’s charge is weighted to beat Bataka and Oakley Pride while the less exposed types need a big improvement on what they have shown so far if they are to figure. That includes Midge Hall, last of six at Ayr on her debut back in July, while the newcomer Striking For Gold makes little appeal on breeding.
