        Verdict

        Caprio has run well here before but his new mark looks tough and instead preference is for PROHIBITION. The William Haggas-trained colt is unexposed and may be a class above this level. He was poor at Wolverhampton when backed off the boards, however this heavy ground winner may be more at home on this slower surface and he is given another chance. Tamasou is holding his form well since a Catterick win in November for this jockey, Jonnie Skull runs this track well but is creeping up the weights while Elusive Fame has become disappointing. He (and Tamasou) are strictly held by Hits Only Jude on their run behind Snow Bay, whilst Follow The Flag drops markedly in trip but any market support would look interesting, despite being unfancied for his best recent efforts. Dig Deep is another to consider after a bold bid behind Great Charm when last seen here.
