In depth

Verdict

The market should offer most clues with King Of The Jungle setting the standard with Benmore Boy and Pistolet Dove looking two of the more likelier dangers. King Of The Jungle was well touted ahead of his Newbury debut. Having failed to deliver, the application of headgear was considered although the punters left him alone as an SP of 22/1 indicated. Benmore Boy is well related and does have a number of bumper winners within his pedigree. The market will show whether anything is anticipated at this stage by Henrietta Knight. Pistolet Dove is related to the family of Champion hurdler, Flakey Dove. He could have a future if producing the goods today. Toastmaster and Checkerboard were purchased for good money at the sales and are watched for any signs of confidence. Busker Royal had a couple of previous winners behind on debut and could be expected to improve. Of the remainder, Mr Barnacle is related to a number of stayers. In the absence of market information, King Of The Jungle gets the nod.
