Bastyan buries ghost of previous misfortune for On Tour connections

It was just like watching Buywise, only with a happier ending.

On Tour, in the same colours of Hywel Jones, landed the 2m4f handicap chase under Mitchell Bastyan, jumping a bit stickily before coming from an unpromising position to score by three lengths.

On Tour has endured hard-luck tales of his own but, 2lb lower than when second in the race last year and with Bastyan's virtual gift of a 5lb claim, he wore down Master Dee, who had been sent on three out by his rider Jonathan Burke.
