In depth
Verdict
Chairman Bobby has been running well of late, is just as effective over five furlongs as six and is ridden by a useful 5lb claimer. He is the TEAMtalk selection to finally break his maiden tag following an excellent effort behind Jodeeka last time out. His main danger could be Dil from Norma Macauley's in-form yard. He looks on a handy mark at present and loves this track. Nineacres was making good late headway last time out and has run well here before. The old boy could well run very well. Geronimo has been generally consistent of late and acts on the track though he may be a little too high in the weights just now.
