Verdict

CROOKS PEAK could prove very well treated indeed given he beat Danny Kirwan in a match latest before that horse chased home leading Supreme contender Angels Breath in a Grade Two at Ascot. Consistent sort Maquisard looks sure to give a solid showing for Chris Gordon while Falcon Sun is another interesting and unexposed novice.
