In depth

Verdict

JERSEY WONDER will need to show further improvement penalised for winning over a mile at Salisbury last month. But this longer trip should suit and Jamie Osborne’s colt is taken to go in again. Buriram has raced twice over 7f and made the frame at Musselburgh last time but Al Mikdam faded quickly away at Sandown on his debut and can only improve. Anyonecanhaveitall and stablemate Capla Crusader were both well beaten on their respective debuts while Say The Word is a half-brother to a winner over 1m6f and preferred to Dark Lochnagar of the newcomers.
