BOASTY was sent off favourite at Wolverhampton on his first start for a new yard but missed out by a neck. He can go one better in this. Thunderoad’s recent second came in classified company while Blazer Two finished runner-up yet again over 1m4f last time and headgear is applied. Fen Tiger has been in the mix lately but both Catch My Breath and Lake Sand have something to prove over this far.
