IMBUCATO (NAP) had wind surgery before posting a much improved effort at Nottingham when finishing third ahead of Captain Sedgwick. Tony Carroll’s charge may now be ready to open his account and gets the vote in a weak race. Watch Tan’s earlier placed efforts came over today’s trip at Brighton and Three C's ran well at Chekmsford in between his more normal modest efforts but it’s difficult to make a serious case for any of the rest.
