Verdict

CARIBBEAN SPRING won this race 12 months ago following a sound reappearance run at Lingfield and, second there last month, he's got every chance of repeating the trick on these terms back here. Monday's winner Shamonix will find this tougher under the penalty but cannot be ruled out while former course winner Misu Pete scored at Yarmouth yesterday and would be interesting now if turned out again from a 3lb lower mark on the AW. Jeremy's Jet and Outlaw Torn are worth a look.
