Brave Eagle could be anything but his last victory was over an extra 3f and his overall form does not warrant his current handicap mark. Persian Delight and Speredek may need this prior to campaigning over fences. The Gipper has ideal conditions but faces a stiff task in trying to concede 14lb to CLENI WELLS. Richard Johnson's mount is not particularly well handicapped but he looks less harshly treated than the rest of these and his last two runs prove him to be in good shape.
