Verdict

THANH NAM has had a good spell in similar races of late and a 4 lb rise for Chelmsford may not prevent him going in again. Akrivos was third to the selection at Chelmsford and should figure again. Bosh Soldier, Family Values and Blue Mountains are nursery newcomers to monitor in the betting.
