A modest contest that is little better than a seller and the suggestion to small stakes is Peteuresque. Robert Buckler's charge has clearly had his training problems and needed his first outing for 14 months when pulled up on his comeback in January. However, the six-year-old showed more sparkle last time at Chepstow and looks ready to take advantage of this significant drop in grade. King Georges was a narrow winner of a similar heat at Wincanton on Boxing Day but has twice been beaten since and looks held by the handicapper at present. Fraternize looks to have his share of temperament having refused to start last time but Awesome Wells shaped better last time and is capable of a good account if in the mood.
