Verdict
A couple of these sprinters stand out on latest running. Caspian Prince is one, as he beat a handful of today's opposition in the Epsom Dash last Saturday including third-placed Addictive Dream and Tangerine Trees. The other is BODY AND SOUL and she's just preferred after going close at York with the likes of Magical Macey and Masamah well beaten. Tim Easterby's filly must go close with a similar effort. The latter's stablemate Confessional finished just behind the fourth Move In Time in Listed company at Haydock with Dinkum Diamond further back. Hawkeyethenoo is not easily overlooked dropping back down into handicap company and the popular veteran Borderlescott went very close over track and trip on his penultimate start.
