Broadway Boy¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 12-0| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR: 112

5/2

Low-mileage 4-y-o who has made a sound start in filling runners-up spot both starts over hurdles to date, comfortably best of rest when runner-up to a potentially smart one at Lingfield (19.5f) 18 days ago. Very interesting making quick switch to handicaps upped to 3m.

Form: 22

Bonza Boy¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-13| J: David Prichard⁽⁵⁾| T: J Scott| OR: 110

8/1

Lightly-raced maiden under NH Rules who despite still looking a bit raw, ran best race when runner-up on return/handicap debut at Hereford (21.7f) last month. This longer trip could feasibly bring about further progress.

Form: 0452-2

Brandy Mcqueen²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: Craig Nichol| T: H Graham & G Rutherford| OR: 108| BF

9/2

5-y-o who has improved for the step up to staying trips this term, twice successful at up to 3¼m during the spring. Solid efforts in defeat from inflated mark since, keeping on well to again fill runners-up spot at Kelso last month. Claims once more.

Form: 6-11422

Tyre Kicker^t¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-10| J: L P Dempsey| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 107

4/1

Proved a different proposition switched to handicaps/upped in trip to open his account at Punchestown (3m) in May, finding plenty to lead dying strides. Ran at least as well in defeat both starts since, third at aforementioned venue last month. Could well do better still.

Form: 000-143

Fenland Tiger¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 103

9/4

Shaped like a stayer in bumpers/novice hurdles and he's duly improved for longer trips/switch to handicaps, showing a willing attitude to complete the hat-trick at Newcastle (23.7f) 16 days ago. Unlikely his progress has levelled out just yet.

Form: 307-111

Forecasts

Fenland Tiger (9/4), Broadway Boy (5/2), Tyre Kicker (4/1), Brandy Mcqueen (9/2), Bonza Boy (8/1), Bobalot (8/1), Moyode Mist (20/1)

BROADWAY BOY lacks the relative experience of a few, but he's made a solid start in twice finding only one too good in maiden/novice company, and making a quick switch to handicaps from what rates an appealing mark, he gets the nod with the step up to 3m another likely plus. There's strength in opposition though, dangers headed up by fellow improving pair Fenland Tiger and Brandy McQueen.
