Buzz is the word for Donny finale

-

Buzz can end an incredible week for Hughie Morrison by bringing down the curtain on the Flat turf season with victory in the Marathonbe­t November Handicap at Doncaster tomorrow.

The East Ilsley handler endured the euphoria and then the agony of watching Marmelo finish second in the Melbourne Cup on Tuesday but can at least have the satisfacti­on of ending the domestic campaign on a high.

Buzz heads to Town Moor on the back of a success at Newbury in September over a mile and a quarter on soft ground.

He only got up in the very last stride that day and will be much more at home over a mile and a half, having won over this distance in July.

Being by Motivator, Buzz will not mind any cut in the ground.

Donjuan Triumphant can take advantage of a drop in grade to get his head in front for the first time in over a year in the Marathonbe­t Official Global Partner Of Manchester City Wentworth Stakes.

The Andrew Baldingtra­inend five-year-old ran a tremendous race to finish fourth in the Haydock Sprint Cup on heavy ground and put in another great effort when third to Sands Of Mali in the British Champions Sprint at Ascot last month.

He drops in to Listed company after those two Group One contests and can be rewarded with a deserved success.
