In depth
Verdict
Totland Bay has proved a thoroughly consistent performer of late and is the TEAMtalk selection to gain a deserved success. The son of Phardante ran particularly well over this course and distance late last month and should confirm placings with the third, Banjo Hill, despite a 3lb turnaround. Lorgnette has claims on the pick of his form from last season but lacks a recent outing and is best watched under top weight.
