Verdict

Racegoers can be a sentimental bunch and there won't be a dry eye in the house if BOX OFFICE can give A P McCoy a victory in the final ride of a long and hugely successful career. The four-year-old runs in the famous green and gold colours of the champion's long-time patron J P McManus and is sure to be suited by this first try over 2m4f so is worth an interest, though he'll probably be well backed and may not offer much in the way of value. Rayvin Black, beaten less than a length in last month's Imperial Cup here, has the best recent form and gets on well with Thomas Garner, though disappointed when tried over further at Ascot in January. Go Odee Go won easily at Taunton and looks to be heading in the right direction while another recent winner, Ossie's Dancer, may also be improving. Lightentertainment has had a fantastic season and Money Talks may have been underestimated by the handicapper but Brother Tedd, Stephen Hero and Wilberdragon all have some improving to do.
