      Verdict

      Prairie Town is seeking a third course victory but it’s no surprise to see FIRST FIGARO turned out again quickly after a relatively comfortable success when out of the handicap in a Class 3 at Doncaster last week. He is actually 2lb lower here with the only negative the fact that Ned Fox has had his claim reduced in the interim. Ivilnoble is now 1-18 over fences but Radetzky March has won here and at Fakenham since the turn of the year and came up against a well-treated rival last time at Market Rasen.
