Verdict

While PRISON BREAK clearly comes with risks attached on the back of a string of lifeless efforts, he's not in the minority in that respect and it could be worth taking a chance on Tim Vaughan's charge off a mark 4 lb lower than when winning this race last year. It wouldn't be a huge surprise were Twilight Prince to step up on his low-key novice form now pitched into a handicap and he is next on the list ahead of recent C&D winner Rock The House and Cumhacht.
