The market should be a good guide but BROOMFIELDS CAVE and Macavity may have slightly stronger point-to-point form than the majority of these and Martin McIntyre’s mount gets the nod of that pair. Good Boy showed good speed in a Flat race at Sandon and holds Sugar Pi on that run. The latter’s stablemate Intrepide Sud also has a squeak.
