Verdict
BORSDANE WOOD wasn’t beaten far at Thirsk recently when only finishing fifth and is going the right way. Karl Burke gets his fair share of winners on the Fibresand and his colt is preferred to Chester fourth Creativity. Oh Mary Oh Mary failed to build on an earlier placed effort at Catterick when well beaten at Hamilton but still makes more appeal than stablemate Stittenham Wood while jockey bookings suggest Revolver is preferred to Anno Lucis of the Prescott runners with Overwrite another newcomer to keep an eye on.
