Having caught the eye on return over shorter here, EDDIE THE BEAGLE again ran well when third having his first crack at this sort of trip at Salisbury 3 weeks ago. That looks solid form for the grade and he gets the nod to build on that now. Fellow 3-y-o Ham And Jam may emerge as the chief threat, ahead of Lednikov.
