        Verdict

        This can go the way of course and distance winner Nuit Sombre who is narrowly preferred to Sawwaah and The Jailer. The selection won well last time when beating Sawwaah and the race has worked out really well. This is the time to be on him as he does go well fresh and with a proven ability to handle the track and a top apprentice booked he should go close. Sawwaah finished behind the selection in that Chepstow race but he has since been out and won twice, although on these terms he looks to have a little to find with the selection. The Jailer went off too quickly here last time so may benefit from a more patient ride, while Prince Valentine goes well here and could represent some each-way value. However, Nuit Sombre ticks plenty of boxes in this contest and gets our nomination.
