A claimer full of questions and very few answers but the vote is tentatively given to FAT BOY. Rated 100 after being highly tried in 2009 Amy Weaver's charge has obviously had his problems and although it is a worry he is reappearing in this grade if he retains some of his ability he should be good enough. If not then Soap Wars could take advantage on these terms after a solid run in handicap company last time while Lujeanie is given a chance on his win in a Newmarket Handicap in July. A wide open race but Fat Boy should be too good.
