Formscan  - Returning to the smaller obstacles worked the oracle for Shuil Ceoil, who recorded a narrow success over C&D when last seen in January. A 6lb rise looks a little harsh, though, and a chance is taken on BANK ON FRANK. Ben Pauling has his string in fine form and the seven-year-old could enhance that record pitched into handicaps for the first time off a workable mark. Ghasham is another to consider.
