Formscan  - BAY OF HOPE returned from a 58-day break to hit the frame at Ripon last month and he was subsequently dropped 1lb by the handicapper, which could help him to get his head back in front. Last-time-out winner Gentle Ellen has to be considered off a 2lb higher mark, while Sassoon and Ratafia are others to respect in an open contest.
