Verdict

EXPLOSIVE BOY is lightly raced for his age and took his form up a notch when runner-up at Cheltenham 3 weeks ago, rallying and just failing to get up. Back up in trip now, he gets the nod to confirm his mark a lenient one. The returning Boothen Boy is also of interest on handicap debut, along with Viceregent and Gaius.
