GYTO Tuesday Notebook Double

No Nay Never colt ARRAY shaped with plenty of promise when runner-up on debut at Newbury. He only went down a length and a quarter to a colt with more experience and they pulled nicely clear from the rest. He will know a lot more this time around and is fully expected to open his account. Union Island ran well on debut at Hamilton but only 4 went to post that day and I’m not sure of the quality of that field. Either way I think he needs more to cope with the selection. Dorney Lake looks the most intriguing of the debutants so he’ll be worth a market check but he’ll need to be pretty smart to win this first time out. Darroch can improve on his debut run but this has strength in depth.

The hat-trick may well be on the cards for the progressive BAND OF JOY. She found plenty off the bridle to win again at Lingfield last time and with Connor Planas great value for his 5lb claim she should have too much for these rivals. Indication Spirit got off the mark at the second time of asking at Musselburgh and then impressed following up again these last time with a bit to spare. She looks the obvious danger but will need to improve again to win this. Petra Celera made the breakthrough at Catterick last time but this comes soon enough and also it looks tougher. Hyrcanian was fourth behind the latter on debut but is entitled to close that gap but whether that would see her get competitive is another question.
