Verdict

PAPA DON'T PREACH has been in good form since returning from a break, narrowly denied at Yarmouth 15 days ago, and he could be ready to take advantage of his current mark. Edmond Halley ran well on his second start for the in-form Ed Bethell and is feared most, while Jm Jhingree is also capable of getting involved.
