As silly as it sounds, this is the theme that actually pushed me to go see the new Star Trek movie, despite all my misgivings about it beforehand. It just made everything that much more Epic. I would love to see it used in a trailer for cap as well (or a similar theme) I imagine story footage of WWII, Steve getting picked to be part of the project, shots of Erskine, Zola, and pre Skull Schmidt before the moment Steve gets the serum and being told it could be fatal. Cut to black and right around where the music picks back up again(1:30ish in the video) show Cap (somewhat obscured by smoke) bounding across the battlefield, reminiscent of that scene in superman returns where young Clark is leaping across the screen (only, y'know, less exagerrated, but still impressive by human standards). they bunch of teasing action and character shots before the end where they show Skull finding the Cube.movie title. End with the shot of Cap throwing the shield. (or doing something ridiculously impressive like stopping a tank shell)
I'd get goosebumps if that were set to this theme. When I saw it used for Star Trek I got the whole "can't wait to see it now" vibe.
I don't think that score sounds suitable for Cap, at least not for the main theme. The main Cap theme should be something rousing, triumphant and patriotic like Star Trek Voyager or Air Force One. Something memorable and instantly recognisable, and in a more major key. Something with miltary drums you could imagine being played at a military event.
Or how about a sweeping theme like North and South by Bill Conti?

Or something like Gone With The Wind?
