Barbury Boy

9st 3lb

J: Rossa Ryan

T: Alan King

Won handicap/seasonal debut at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) in April but odds-on flop over 11.6f at Haydock next time; settling him was again an issue back over 1m2f in a steadily run race at Nottingham (good) one month ago but he came from the back in six-runner race to win by a neck; up 5lb but the third scored next time and this 3yo leaves the firm impression that there is better still to come from him.

Showed improved form when winning at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm; runner-up has won twice since) in April but he didn't settle at Haydock (1m4f, good) 25 days ago; this drop back in trip could suit and he's open to further progress.

Gelded and upped in distance, showed much improved form to win 12-runner race at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) on reappearance, pulling well clear with a rival who has since gone one better; should be at least as effective over this longer distance; still unexposed and has solid credentials.

Eight-race maiden; second in Wolverhampton handicap (9.4f) on seasonal debut in April and put two lesser efforts behind him when sixth there (8.6f) last month but needs to find something extra over this new trip; wore blinkers or cheekpieces for last five races but goes without headgear today.
