Verdict
BOOM THE GROOM (NAP) has been competing in tougher sprints than this and went close at Lingfield the last time he raced at this lower level. He finished in front of Bowson Fred earlier and has the beating of Tropics and Compas Scoobie on collateral form. Tropics continues to run well and beat Zac Brown here in January while Cartographer should be sharper for a recent outing at Kempton and drops back to 6f. Queen In Waiting is capable in this grade and represents an in-form yard but hasn’t raced since August.
