        Verdict

        Peponi has been running well without looking like winning in handicaps of late and drops back into this company in search of that elusive first win. Unfortunately for him, Irish import ARIYFA has also turned up. She finished runner-up at Dundalk on her last two outings for Mick Halford, finding only the Ballydoyle-trained Justification too good last time, and should be opening her account for new connections here. Chasin' Rainbows could prove the best of the remainder on her third at Kempton last month.
