6/1

9/2, last of 11 in handicap at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) 33 days ago, unsuited by step up in trip. This distance more suitable and this represents a pretty big drop in class.

Battista^h⁴⁸

7/4

Promising type. Winner at Wolverhampton in July. Good second of 7 in handicap at Sandown (8f, heavy, 6/4) 48 days ago given he slowly away. Up in trip, which will suit and he looks well weighted.

Forecasts

Battista (7/4), Panning For Gold (11/2), Tuxedo Junction (6/1), Tarbaan (13/2), Forest Demon (8/1), Queen's Company (17/2), Wintercrack (10/1), Band Of Steel (11/1), Phantasy Mac (12/1), Taritino (14/1), Absolute Queen (20/1), Bold Ribb (33/1)

BATTISTA is bred to excel over this sort of trip and, having caught the eye when second at Sandown last month, he may well be ahead of his mark. Panning For Gold's record in handicaps is excellent and he's feared most, ahead of Tuxedo Junction.
