Race Tip

INTO THE LIGHT (12) was only narrowly denied on handicap debut tackling 1m2f at Sandown Park. This step up in distance should suit with William Buick retained for Charlie Appleby. Sets the standard holding leading claims. HEYZOOM (17) opened his account by 0. 5L contesting a 1m2f Newbury maiden and looks fairly treated switching to handicap company from a favourable weight. Represents the main danger. JOULANY (6) remains a maiden. Placed the last two times including over 1m4 1/2f at Chester while keeps Hector Crouch. Makes appeal. TIERRA DEL TORO (2) shaped solidly when third in the London Gold Cup and can progress. Not dismissed.
