Tuscan²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: P J McDonald| T: C Hills| OR: 101

7/2

Useful sort who improved when fourth in a listed event at Chester last time but handicapper has taken a dim view of that effort, so even more required now back in a handicap.

Form: 26-1204

Bay Of Honour²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: James Doyle| T: C Appleby| OR: 94| D

11/10

Lightly-raced Shamardal colt who doubled his tally at Thirsk in June and, while slightly underwhelming over C&D on handicap debut, he remains with potential. Player.

Form: 01-15

Spinaround^p²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Benoit D L Sayette⁽³⁾| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 94| D

10/3

Scored with a bit in hand at Chelmsford in June and has remained in form since, albeit unable to land a blow over C&D last time. Needs a solid pace but not discounted.

Form: 4-22106

Croupier³²³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Harry Burns⁽⁵⁾| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 89| BF

6/1

Improved form when making a winning nursery debut at Newbury in August and backed it up with an excellent second to American Star at same course. Has been off 10 months since, but should be ready to go.

Forecasts

Bay Of Honour (11/10), Spinaround (10/3), Tuscan (7/2), Galiac (7/2), Point Lynas (4/1), Croupier (6/1)

BAY OF HONOUR was only fifth over C&D on handicap debut last time but, with few miles on the clock, he remains with potential and is marginally preferred to recent Redcar scorer Point Lynas in a trappy event. Spinaround is another one to consider.
