      Verdict

      BEN HALL has not been in the best of form but has been competing in Class 3 handicaps on Turf. He won a conditions event on Polytrack at the start of the year and is just preferred to a similar type in Peace Seeker. The latter also takes a big drop in class and has 8lb in hand with all-weather regular Desert Strike. Fitz Flyer and Profile Star have even more to find with the leading contenders and may struggle.
