HAVANA BEAT, rated 86 after two victories on the Flat, has made mistakes at the last in both starts over timber and still managed to finish runner-up so can go one better. Burrows Lane has a similar profile though doesn't look to have the same scope while Cap Horner appears to need further, a remark that also applies to point-to-pointer Ring Moylan. West Class was beaten a long way when runner-up at Southwell but Oscar's Song looks to have some potential and is one to note in the market.
