Verdict
Big Time was narrowly beaten over 7f at Dundalk in October but hasn’t raced since and this looks tougher. There is not much between Kasbah and Sign of The Kodiac on collateral form having both been placed here behind Jordan Sport on separate occasions but Bosham is usually best over 5f nowadays. GENTLEMEN (NAP) finished runner-up in a conditions race behind the All-Weather Sprint Championship winner Pretend, rated 111, at Kempton nine days ago and should go very close in this company with a similar effort.
