Verdict

This can go the way of BOYFRIEND, who was sent off an unconsidered 20/1 shot at Windsor on debut last month but shaped with plenty of encouragement in pulling clear with one with experience (and who has won again subsequently). Richard Hannon's colt can get the better of Starlust, who scored second time up at Chelmsford recently and is open to further progress. Array and Navy Jack are both interesting newcomers and they can do battle for third spot.
