Verdict

This is a very tricky seller but Shadow Jumper should be up to taking first prize, Baytown Flyer and Get To The Point look the main rivals. The selection hit winning form on the all-weather at Southwell last time beating She Who Dares Wins in game fashion. That was only a banded event but this is no better and he should make it back to back victories. Baytown Flyer found seven furlongs testing his stamina last time and he should appreciate this drop back to six, having beaten Cadogen Square comfortably over this distance on his previous outing. Get To The Point ran well in a better race than this over a mile last time and is not certain to benefit from this drop in trip, however he should still be capable of getting in a blow. Dane Rhapsody could prove best of the remainder, but in a wide open affair Shadow Jumper just gets the vote.
