Verdict

PELORIC strikes as the most likely winner dropping in grade. He posted a good third at Newton Abbot on his final outing last season and can have his Exeter reappearance effort easily overlooked having reportedly suffered a breathing issue. Hereia left Neil Mulholland cheaply in November, but his previous form entitles him to respect at this level.
