Verdict

Placed twice in better races than this over hurdles, SCHOOL DAYS OVER should finally get his head in front today if fully wound-up. Jimmy Boy ran 11 times in Ireland without winning and has only placed once so far but Mr Mackay is sure to improve on his third at Worcester tackling another half-mile.
