Formscan - Although turned over at 2/7 when a close-up second at Newbury, Act Of Innocence lost little in defeat against a well-weighted juvenile. Nicky Henderson's gelding is a potential improver stepping up in distance and isn't taken lightly, but the unbeaten TAURUS BAY is slightly more compelling at the forecast prices. The five-year-old has impressed on both outings under Rules and he looks ready for this step up in class. Heads Up is also worth a second look.
