Although not a confident selection, BAGUTTA SUN looks to have obvious claims of landing this seller ahead of the likes of Kathindi, Shoot The Pot and Frameit. Tom Dascombe hasn't had a great season but there have been signs lately that his horses are beginning to find form. That's certainly the case with Bagutta Sun, who wasn't beaten at all far off a mark of 74 in a Chester handicap last time. That was by far her best effort of the year and she can be forgiven needing time to find her form having missed all of 2009; at these weights, she should go close. Kathindi has claims for a yard going well having suggested last time that he's able to reproduce all-weather form on the turf. Stan Moore has his runners in fair form and this 60-rated performer has solid each-way claims, as does his stablemate Frameit whose sole success came in similar company. Shoot The Pot has been running well enough in handicaps without suggesting he can win off a mark of 60, so with blinkers tried for the first time a market check is advised. Sultan's Choice is another trying headgear for the first time and she's been running well in similar races of late and should again give a good account of herself with conditions to suit, but if she can build on her latest outing Bagutta Sun should take some beating.
