    Verdict

    GENTLEMEN (NAP) has been in fine form so far this year, winning three of his four starts including a double over track and trip. He’s upped in class for this but may not have stopped improving yet. Nuno Tristan has been running well in similar company but is 9lb higher than his win at Wolverhampton in January. He should have the beating of Crosse Fire on collateral form but Hoofalong is not out of this off his current mark on a close-up fourth to Boom The Groom in a Class 2 sprint at Wolverhampton earlier this year.
