        Verdict

        CARIBBEAN SPRING arrives on the back of a victory at Chelmsford. He’d done all his winning at this track prior to that success and has won under Rosie Margarson in the past. Pike Corner Cross was placed over a longer trip here back in December and should be in the mix once again while Decoration Of War gets a change of headgear attempting to end a long losing run. Course regular I Think So has yet to win and returned a disappointing favourite last time but Limerick Lord posted a better effort at Southwell on his latest outing and has scored over track and trip in the past.
