Another Stowaway has been placed in a point-to-point and a bumper. Book of Gold should do better now he has a few hurdles to negotiate while Frankie Rapper and My Charity have hinted at ability. SPRINGTOWN LAKE (NAP) ran a cracker on his debut over timber at Ascot when beaten less than a length by a subsequent winner. That form has worked out well with several of those behind having scored since and Philip Hobbs' five-year-old will take all the beating today.
