        Verdict

        Figaro Flyer is selected here ahead of Hypocrisy and Lucayos. Rowe Park is on a roll but has a big hike in the ratings to contend with after his latest win. Figaro Flyer was beaten a whisker off a pound lower mark recently, although that came at Wolverhampton, and he is closely weighted with Hypocrisy, who also holds claims, based on Wolverhampton form in December. Raised five pounds for a narrow course and distance win, Lucayos, in keeping with a number of these, needs to improve again, although he could still go well. Circuit Dancer also needs to improve but at least his all-weather record is one win from two starts. A tricky race then in which we will side with Figaro Flyer.
