Newton Abbot
Thu 27th Aug

Formscan  - Thickthorn Tom has been a model of consistency this year and it would be no surprise if he went in again for leading connections after setting up this hat-trick attempt courtesy of a smooth Worcester success. However, IT'S A BREEZE is slightly more appealing on a hat-trick of his own, as he has left a lasting impression the last twice at this venue. Lady Kara had been in good form over hurdles before unseating her rider over fences at Stratford and cannot be overlooked.
