FormscanBy Alan Magee - VIEW THE BAY is progressing nicely and gets the nod to record her third win here this winter. Connections took a chance by running her in a seven-furlong maiden just before Christmas. Sprinting distances are much more her thing and she stamped her authority in the closing stages when successful over the minimum trip a fortnight ago. Andy Slattery nominated this feature race as her next target after that win and six could well prove to be her optimum distance. English-trained sprinters have a good record when taking on Irish handicappers, and Michael Wigham has signaled his intent by booking Colin Keane for Nick Vedder. The Rip Van Winkle gelding has won three times since August, with two of those victories coming over this trip at Newcastle. Ado McGuinness rejuvenated Master Speaker winning twice early last year including in this race, and it will be interesting to see how the top-weight fares after a five-month break.
