Verdict

BOYCHICK has looked highly progressive this year and he was unlucky not to win at Kempton last time; there could be even more to come back on turf. Bahamian C is an interesting player off a feather weight and it will be interesting to see if his 7lb claiming jockey can get a tune out of him on just his fourth ride. Paul Nicholls has a rare runner in this sphere and his daughter Megan has made a promising start to her career as a jockey, she should get a good a spin round from Volpone Jelois. Glorious Asset completes the shortlist; his trainer usually finds the key to these types and this gelding can go from strength-to-strength now he has that win on the board.
  1. Boychick
  2. Bahamian C
  3. Volpone Jelois
