Forecasts

Bossman Jack (10/11), Starzand (6/5), Blowers (9/1), Emerald Breeze (12/1), Spring Serenade (50/1), Sun And Rain (80/1), Man Maid (125/1), Silver Gale (150/1), Commander Teddy (250/1), Rest Is The Best (300/1), Half Pint Daisy (300/1)

Verdict

BOSSMAN JACK shaped with plenty of promise in a strong-looking maiden on return/hurdles bow at Warwick 7 weeks ago and, sure to progress, Dan Skelton's charge looks to hold serious claims of opening his account here. That said, the penalised Starzand arrives unbeaten in points/under Rules and he's the lead threat with further improvement on the cards. Shock Exeter scorer Blowers can fill the frame.
