Fri 9th Oct

Formscan  - HAVANA TOUCH struggled on the turf at Ayr latest but the three-time course winner will be much happier back on an artificial surface, not least around here, and can get back on track in the hands of Billy Loughnane. Eupator's handicap mark has been on a steady decline but he's shown enough at times this year to suggest he can take advantage if things go his way, and don't rule out the top-weight Marsh Benham because he was far from disgraced at Brighton last time.
