Londonia was engaged in the 4.00 at Newton Abbot yesterday so that result should be monitored. Foxy Act completed a mid-summer double in novice company at Newton Abbot and makes her handicap debut but Destiny's Gold is still 8lb higher than his latest victory in May. WYNFORD is only four and this is tougher than his latest victory at Bangor though he has plenty of scope for further progress and can take this for the Skeltons. Matchaway is best on soft ground so some rain would aid his cause.
