Verdict
Elysian Prince tries his luck in handicap company for the first time after easily winning a maiden auction event over course and distance in September. But he races off the same mark as ART WAVE, successful in a Wolverhampton maiden before finding the competition too hot in a better race at Kempton last time. Marco Botti's youngster is preferred and should also get the better of Castle Combe, who is steadily improving but still needs more. Dry Your Eyes started favourite at Hamilton last time but only finished fourth and is just a pound lower. Bognor is unexposed but Habdab still makes more appeal.
