AVALON BAY can tend to race a little too keenly for his own good but if he can settle into a good position, Pat Eddery's inmate appears feasibly handicapped at present. Misscomplacent is tried in blinkers for the first time and with the yard in good form, it would be no surprise to see a big run. Richard Hughes has rejected Looksmart to ride Queen Of Cash. All hope relies upon her successfully translating fibresand form. High Class Lady has been raised 6lb for a placing at Nottingham. Homeboy is tried in a visor having struggled to realise much in the way of form. Special Endeavour is watched closely in the market on a first foray into handicapping.
