Fri 21st Nov

Formscan  - Bowood and Elle-May Croot have struck up an excellent partnership, with the pair teaming up for two easy victories at Newcastle. Special Ghaiyyath is another on a three-timer and even though he has yet to get his head in front on an artificial surface, his pedigree suggests it shouldn't be a problem. Both winning sequences may be brought to an end by GOLDEN PHARAOH, who went close in a really competitive Doncaster event on the final day of the turf season and has gone well over this C&D before.
