Verdict

BERTIE BLU BOY (NAP) has won two of his last three starts at Chelmsford. He is up a further 5lb but today's opposition looks distinctly modest and he can go in again. Seek The Fair Land went close in a lowly seller over a mile last time while Suitsus won his maiden over track and trip back in November but has been beaten in handicaps subsequently. Little Big Man has recorded all three wins to date in plating company while Pharoh Jake's sole victory over 6f came back in 2012.
