Verdict
Gooner Boy cost 260,000gns as a half-brother to three winners. But the Gosden newcomer will need to be above average to get the better of TOP FOX. The latter is rated 82 having finished third over today’s trip at Wolverhampton last time and Ed Walker’s charge makes more appeal than both Honours and Jersey Gift. Didtheyleaveuoutto is rated much higher than Bard Of Brittany over hurdles as both debut on the Flat.
