Verdict
This has an open look about it but Jungle Book and Star Of St James would have claims on the pick of last year’s form. Inductive found only one too good back on Turf at Catterick and is tried in blinkers while Cmon Cmon may be improving. Ventura Rascal was third over this trip at Doncaster last month but NODDYOLDER (NAP) was an eye-catcher in stronger company at Haydock on his handicap debut and is from a yard that’s been firing in the winners lately.
