Caprio could be the call against Moral Duty and Sakhacity. The son of Captain Rio was not given a particularly hard time on debut after he had misbehaved on the way to the post. Roger Charlton's runners invariably improve for a first outing and it would be a surprise if there wasn't more to come this time. Moral Duty sets the benchmark. Pat Eddery's representative has not been tested on this surface but sets the benchmark on official figures. Sakhacity shaped with some measure of promise when third behind Edge Of Gold and Geestring at Newbury on a similar surface. She has to be forgiven a below par run next time out. Dundeem Dream could be anything on pedigree as there is a distinct speed infulence. Crueso Cusan is watched in the market as her stable have a fair record with their juveniles this term. Caprio is chanced in expectation that he can leave behind the memories of a bad first outing.
