In depth

Verdict

Marino Prince, Home and Kryptonite look the principals here with Marino Prince set to come out on top. Home has five placed efforts to his credit and though he was second in a claimer last time, he has previously been placed in nurseries and can go close again. Kryptonite stepped up on previous form when scoring over the course and distance last time and only five pounds higher here he can go well. Having won two claimers on the bounce, Marino Prince is stepping up to handicap grade here but he has won with some authority, and with both his wins coming over the course and distance he looks to have conditions in his favour. Marino Prince can reign here.
