Itsmyboy, Adjami, and Sargasso Sea look the three to concentrate on in the finale and the vote is given to Itsmyboy. The selection was a fair bumper performer. Is suire to have been well schooled for this his hurdling debut and he will only need to put in a clear round to score Adjami rates the main danger on his latest third behind Medision but that horse like the selection is trained by Martin Pipe so he should know where he stands. Sargasso Sea is another worthy of respect as he was a fair second behind Bonny Grey last time and that form has since been franked so he should be noted in the market. Of the remainder Shining Strand was a fair bumper performer but has not progressed as expected while Fandani,has given the impression he would be suited by a longer trip so for the winner we return to Itsmyboy.
