Verdict

Irish raider BOSTON MAX looked some way ahead of his mark when making a winning handicap debut at Dundalk and may prove hard to beat if backing that up on turf. Stock Market and Forever Glamorous also arrive on the back of improved efforts and should give the selection plenty to think about.

3	No impact in maidens last season but proved a different proposition in first-time tongue strap to make a winning handicap debut after 8 months off in a handicap at Dundalk (5f) 4 weeks ago. 7 lb rise may underestimate him. 1st Pick 3 Boston Max (Ire) Jockey: Billy Loughnane Trainer: Gordon Elliott, Ireland J: Billy Loughnane T: Gordon Elliott, Ireland	100	-	-	-	50%

1	Has looked far from straightforward but much more like it in refitted blinkers when third of 10 in a 5f handicap at Windsor early this month and backed that up with a good second in a 15-runner event at Salisbury (6f) last week. Clear of remainder there and he should be in the mix again. 2nd Pick 1 Stock Market Jockey: Charles Bishop Trainer: Tony Carroll J: Charles Bishop T: Tony Carroll	99	-	-	-	25%

4	Modest form in 6 outings for John O'Shea last season but much improved on debut for this yard faced with less testing ground when second of 13 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good) 17 days ago.
