Verdict
MINELLA WHISPER and Serpico finished third and fourth behind Boss Mans Ladder over a slightly longer trip at Stratford last month. Richard Phillips’ stayer won over course and distance earlier and can get his head back in front with Tom Bellamy taking over the reins from a conditional. Marvellous Monty finished close up over this trip at Hereford in March while Frankie Rapper opened his account at Worcester earlier this month, though the runner-up was well beaten at Uttoxeter on Saturday. Dreamsoftheatre is still 4lb higher than when successful over track and trip in October but Justification may have each-way claims.
