Newbury
Fri 18th Sep

Formscan  - Tambora won nicely at Sandown at the start of July and returns to action with solid claims. Salisbury winner Mythical Bird failed to stay the longer trip at Bath last time and is not out of it either, but RIVER CARD makes most appeal. Brian Meehan's gelding beat the top-class Maltese Cross at Ascot last term and finished a decent fourth over a mile here on last month's belated seasonal debut. This extra test of stamina could spark further improvement.
