Verdict

Archipeligo arrives in good shape for an in form yard but his best efforts have clearly come on AW tracks and Hamilton and today's mark and opposition will demand everything is in his favour. Keith Dalgleish has enjoyed success in this event on a couple of occasions recently. Maulesden May looks the pick of his pair but we particularly like the look of BROADWAY DREAMS . There are plenty of positives to take from his last two runs which have worked out well and which put him on a decent mark for his handicap debut.
