HUMUNGOSAUR failed to last home over a longer trip at Pontefract recently, but he'd gone close to landing a Listed race over a mile at Deauville previously. Paul Cole's colt can get off the mark here at the chief expense of Sholaan. The latter has improved with every run culminating in a decent second at Newcastle last month and he should have the beating of Breaking The Bank, who had Jupiter Storm behind when fifth at Newbury. Inffiraaj and Persidha have a bit to find, but newcomer Henry Clay cost 115,000gns and should be noted.
Breaking The Bank 12-1 (9-3) Held up in touch, ridden and one pace 2f out, headway over 1f out, kept on under pressure inside final furlong, no threat, 5th of 15, 3 1/2l behind Miblish (9-3) at Newbury 7f 2yo mdn (4) gd in Sep.
