Verdict

CARADOC has a good strike-rate of three wins from seven starts and he might be able to enhance here now stepped up to this trip for the first time. He was a comfortable winner when last seen at Windsor and he's due to go up more than his 5lb penalty when the handicapper has his say. Corelli was only narrowly denied last time and likely has more to come while Speed Company arrives in good form and goes well at this venue.
