PRIVATE PEACEFUL was well beaten last time but had previously shaped with encouragement in a Listowel maiden that has worked out quite well, and he should have more to offer now handicapping; Navajo Point arrives on the back of a second Gowran success and looks the main danger despite a further 8 lb rise, while Thru and Thru is on a good mark if building on a pair of recent in-frame efforts. Khormor Syd and Lady Arwen are also respected.
