        Verdict

        The unexposed CAPOTE’S DREAM won over course and distance on his return to action and debut for Tom Ward’s yard. He won a shade cosily and can confirm running with third-placed Grey Galleon. The Blue Bower, Phuket Power and The Lamplighter all scored over track and trip in September last year and all return from an absence while Spring Romance may do better back over this shorter trip after disappointing over 7f at Chelmsford.
