Verdict

VOYAGE BOSS (10) is racing well on wet decks, sticking on gamely from the front last time out with no weight on his back. Back onto a firmer surface this time should suit and he remains down in the weights with Yuen's claim. Can sit handy throughout and be tough to gun down. FLYING SNIPER (13) jumped the race favourite last start over this track and trip but never threatened after ending up well back from the wide draw. A softer barrier this time is a big tick and the winkers go on for the first time. Expecting him to sit closer this time and he can fire a shot with Purton sticking. GRAND PATCH (6) was big odds last start but showed good ability at his first try over 7f, ending up 1.5L off the winner. The form has been solid since and he looks to be an improving commodity. Can go on with the job now. HOT AIR BALLON (7) needs a bit of luck from the barrier but is good enough if he's at his best.
