Verdict
A big step up in trip clearly suited CAPARD KING (NAP) at Huntingdon last week as he stayed on strongly to open his account. The runner-up franked the form at Chepstow on Wednesday, when The Boogeyman was well beaten, and Jonjo O'Neill's six-year-old is difficult to oppose here with only a 7lb penalty. Changeofluck is an habitual bridesmaid and seems destined for minor honours again giving 4lb to the selection. Yasir is fit from the all-weather but tries 3m for the first time and all of the remainder were pulled up last time.
