PEDRO VALENTINO has gone from strength-to-strength since the cheekpieces were applied, making it 2 wins from his last 3 starts with a game display at Yarmouth 6 weeks ago. He earns the vote to defy the handicapper again and come out on top. Savvy Warrior at the foot of the weights is another of firm interest and he, along with Usuario Amigo, look the chief threats.
