Verdict

VALENTINE BOY confirmed the promise of his previous run when resuming winning ways over C&D 23 days ago, seeing off a next-time-out winner in the process and he's very much of interest again from a 4 lb higher mark. U S S Constitution, Kit Gabriel and Goldie Trickett are a trio of others to consider, whilst Gunfighter commands a close market check starting out for a new yard.
