    Verdict

    Prince Tom jumps well for a novice but Paul Nicholls' dual course winner had every chance when beaten two lengths by Ixora at Worcester in June and the pair meet on identical terms here. The mare has been beaten at Bangor since but could easily bounce back though she probably lacks the class of TIGER O'TOOLE. Though Sublime Talent is 4lb better off than when only beaten a neck by his stablemate over 2m1f here earlier this summer, Paul Moloney's mount has since run really well in a Listed handicap at Market Rasen and now looks to be on an upward curve. A repeat of that latest effort may well suffice today.
