Sendintank can end the Turf season on a high by beating Contact Dancer and Trance, with Fling expected to figure in the shake-up. Sendintank has been a real money spinner for Stuart Williams this term, having won no less than nine of his 11 outings this year, and should make another bold bid to defy a six-pound penalty here. He started off on a mark of 50 on the all-weather in January and by the time he turned up at Musselburgh on Wednesday, had risen to 85. Taken out of the November Handicap at the 48-hour declaration stage, he can prove that connections have made the right choice. He was originally pencilled in for the end of season sales, but it must be odds-on now that he will still be with his current handler next term, and he can further sway connections by defying the handicapper again. Contact Dancer caused a bit of a shock when landing the Cesarewitch from the fast-finishing Mr Ed but will obviously love the trip, and holds Trance on that running. Fling took on the useful Alcazar at Musselburgh in midweek and will battle away under Kieren Fallon, but they all have it to do to stop Sendintank from winning the final race of Doncaster's season.
