Bosh disappointed on his final start last season but has been given plenty of time to recover. Mystery Fox did well in nurseries in the autumn and Private Signal was gelded after finishing down the field in a Group 2 last July. Honky Tonk Man and My Little Tip both ended last season in fine form but KOY KOY comfortably landed the odds over track and trip on his final start as a two-year-old. He has the scope to develop further this year so gets the nod over the unbeaten Whoputfiftyinyou and the race-fit City Runner.
