“Held up in the pack - hit a rung at the 2nd and lacked fluency - moved into contention after the 8th - up to 4th before three out - into 3rd entering the straight - pressed the front-runner at the last - hit the front on the run-in - stayed on strongly to win eased down”

Racing Post verdict
Third-partyNadia's Boy holds a clear advantage over this field on rated form, sitting narrowly ahead of the chasing pack led by William Tell, Scalpnagoon and West Away, who are clustered within two pounds of each other and represent the chief dangers on a testing 19-furlong trip at Wexford. The unrated Begger and Kelya introduce an element of the unknown, and with confidence modest, this is far from a straightforward call. On the figures available, though, **Nadia's Boy** is the selection.
Racing Post pick: Nadia's Boy
