Verdict

Noble Sham gets a solid vote in the bumper ahead of Mr Jawbreaker, Fish Food, Back With A Bang and Crimson King. Fourth on his Stratford debut in a similar event, the Martin Pipe-trained Noble Sham gets the vote in the bumper, as he will probably improve on that fair effort. Fish Food has something to like on breeding and might go well, while connections went to 18,000 euros to secure Thenford Lord, and Back With a Bang showed promise on his debut and can be considered. Hard N Sharp has some good jumping blood and should improve on his debut, while much as Mr Jawbreaker's stock has fallen - he is a son of a Cheshire Oaks winner and he originally cost 200,000 guineas - he has shown plenty of promise in finishing second in each bumper start to date, and is respected. Crimson King is one to keep a close eye on, and, with Mr Parson not looking anywhere near as good as his brother Calling Brave, we return to the selection, which is Noble Sham.
