Formscan - Havana Smile showed a big chunk of improvement on his third appearance in handicap company when successful at Sandown and is bound to mount a bold bid, but the vote is handed to ONE AND GONE. Ian Williams' gelding finished a creditable fourth over track and trip on his penultimate start and a repeat of that performance would see him go close. Red Snapper is another to note.
