Verdict
Many to consider although Sleep In First would have been the choice if anywhere near the level which saw him rattle up a hat-trick last autumn, including over course and distance. However, he's shown nothing in two recent runs and is best watched. Amilliontimes is another possible but an absence since last November is a concern. Captain Brown represents the local yard and arrives on the back of a cosy Kelso success and Nico de Boinville is booked but he's yet to shine in four starts at this track, whilst stablemate May's Boy has presumably been prepared with this in mind after a pipe-opener on the level just five days ago.Scotsbrook Legend and Gurkha Brave are also considered but the choice is RESTRAINT OF TRADE. He's gone well in better class than this, is open to improvement after a handful of starts over timber and the ascending star that is Sean Bowen has been booked for the ex-Godolphin gelding.
