Verdict

We'll take Blue Charm on with BOSS HOG whilst it would be no surprise to see Boundless Prospect show up well with his yard in good form. Boundless Prospect has won twice here and could well pop up again but Blue Charm and Boss Hog represent more solid propositions. Blue Charm has been raised by 5lbs for his win over course and distance but Liam Keniry is replaced in the saddle by a 7lb claimer so he'll effectively be racing from a lower mark. In spite of that we're still going to take a chance with Boss Hog who has been going up in the weights for getting beaten. He has made the frame on both starts since returning from a summer break and looks capable of paying his way over the winter for his new trainer; he can start by taking first prize here.
