Verdict

Caius Marcius has been rated as high as 129 over hurdles and is an interesting recruit to fencing with Brian Hughes booked for the ride. The move to the larger obstacles is possibly due to him rather being in the grip of the handicapper over timber but he has plenty of time left to take to his new discipline. He'll enjoy the ground here but CURIOUS CARLOS is just preferred despite having to give 6lb to the Richards' inmate. He has come to fences at a relatively late stage of his career but didn't put a foot wrong on chasing bow at Sedgefield and can make his experience count. Winning pointer Cool Valley is best of the remaining pair.
