      Verdict

      VATICAN HILL (NAP) beat Tailor's Row at Wolverhampton more easily than the winning distance of a length would suggest. A four-timer beckons for Jamie Osborne’s colt and he’s preferred to Espresso Freddo The latter finally won a maiden race when successful at Wolverhampton last month and makes more appeal than Re Run, who disappointed when favourite for a maiden at Lingfield. Sky Ballerina failed to cope with a 3lb rise last time having won at Wolverhampton before that while though Man About Town drops in class, he has not raced since August.
