    Verdict

    Only 43 runners are spread over the seven races on today's card and there are likely to be a few short-priced favourites, starting with CAPITAINE in this. A very easy winner of a bumper here in April, he probably only need jump round safely to get the better of the fully-exposed Tell The Tale and Chief Bottlewasher, who was entered at Fontwell yesterday.
