    Verdict

    LONGBOAT KEY appears unopposable in this contest so Bolanderi might be the best hope for forecast backers. Mark Johnston has spotted a suitably weak opportunity for the son of Dr Fong and he should realistically have come on for his first run for some time. Bolanderi finished third in a bumper at Lingfield so there should be no worries in relation to stamina. Clovis drops back to ten furlongs again but this long standing maiden has looked one to avoid. Super King is exposed as a 45 rated performer and is hard to fancy. Ensnare is bred for shorter trips than this but made no show on debut at long odds. A race with little in the way of betting appeal and this should be no more than a schooling run for Longboat Key.
