Formscan  - LIVELY CITIZEN benefited from the application of cheekpieces when running out a comfortable winner over fences at Ffos Las 10 days ago, and the veteran performer may take advantage of running off the same mark back over timber. It's A Love Thing has been in excellent form on the level and may well be fairly handicapped switching back to hurdles. Others to note are Bannister and Fandabidozi.
