Verdict

Raving Bonkers carries a penalty for his Towcester success, but that race rather fell apart, and it is RETURN TICKET who sets the solid benchmark. The Richard Collins owned gelding had the misfortune to clash with Paul and Clare Rooney's I'm To Blame on debut over C&D last month, but acquitted himself well in finishing just over 5L third to that potentially useful rival. With natural progression to be expected, he's a strong choice to strike at the second attempt, with the proviso being that the interesting looking debutante Simply Mani doesn't come in for sustained market support.
