      Verdict

      Marettimo has made mistakes at crucial stages in his races and his form figures don't flatter him but Dartmoor Girl was beaten a long way when third at Exeter. KINGS INN had just one run in Ireland when a promising second over a mile at Killarney in August. He was purchased for £100,000 at the sales the following month despite not having a typical NH pedigree and should start to repay some of the outlay here. Sin Sin was placed four times in seven starts for Jim Bolger and should be placed to win over jumps while Vaziani showed potential on the Flat in France and could provide the main threat.
