Formscan - El Rojo Grande has enjoyed a fine season with four victories, including on his latest start at Warwick, although he has questions to answer with regards to stamina. Streamsforth Lad was runner-up over C&D on his penultimate start, finishing a place ahead of SUBTLE FORTUNE. He backed that run up when filling the same position at Hexham on Monday, but Mel Rowley's mare has every chance of reversing the form coming into this a fresher horse.
