Verdict

A winner at Bath on his debut, Big Boots has been beaten carrying a penalty in a couple of subsequent starts. Temple of Wonder never threatened in a tougher race at Windsor last time while Tizwotitiz was well beaten in soft going at Doncaster on his earlier debut. But SHAYBANI showed early pace when runner-up over 6f at Goodwood on his introduction and Richard Hughes’ colt should go close over this shorter trip if handling the underfoot conditions.
