PEAKY BOY looked a good jumps prospect in bumpers last autumn and may have been found a good opening for his first go over hurdles for his new yard, with the stiffer test sure to suit. Innatendue, who went close over 2m here in November, will be the danger if staying this longer trip. Magical King is also in with a shout.
