Racing Post verdict
Third-partyThe Thames Boatman heads the field on the figures after landing a race two starts back and running creditably in stronger company since; acts on any going over today's trip, first-time cheekpieces applied, and a 1lb lower mark than last time reads favourably. Moulin Booj drops in grade and ran close to form last time, sitting just a pound above the last winning mark; Hoodie Hoo and Correspondence also have solid claims. The Thames Boatman is our selection.
