      Verdict

      COASE did particularly well to land a Class 2 handicap at the Craven meeting - in doing so proving he remains equally effective on Turf and the all-weather. He's only up 2lb for that success and it's interesting to see his shrewd handler drop him back to Class 4 level here. The ground is a possible concern and it wouldn't want to go any softer on available evidence. Under Fox is a real threat though as he will have no issues at all on this terrain and receives 11lb from the selection. He'll be hard to keep out of the frame at least. Mr Trick also looks neatly weighted to get involved and it's crucial to watch Lost In Time in the market for Godolphin on a first start since November.
