Verdict
BAYRAAT's two previous runs at this track have resulted in a C&D win and a good third, and the 9-y-o is appealing on the back of an eye-catching reappearance spin at Redcar where he was forced to switch at a crucial stage. Novello Lad shouldn't be inconvenienced by this drop back in trip and is feared most, while Havana Sky is also likely to take a hand in the finish.

VerdictCreditable second of 12 in handicap (11/8) at Doncaster (7f, firm) 21 days ago, left with too much to do. 1 lb nudge fair enough and another bold show firmly on the cards back at 6f.

VerdictC&D winner. 4 wins from 6 runs this year. Career best when winning 14-runner handicap at Newbury (6f, firm, 17/2) 8 days ago, just holding on. More needed under a penalty in her hat-trick bid.- 6. BayraatJ: Trevor WhelanT: Tom TateF: 239/0730-4

VerdictC&D winner. 14/1, creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at Redcar (6f, good to firm) 60 days ago. Shaped better than the bare result that day and, given that it was his first run for 8 months, it's probably safe to assume that he'll be sharper this time.
