Formscan - LIGHT UP OUR STARS exploited a sliding rating when he emerged as the ready winner of a similar race at Yarmouth 10 days ago and a 3lb higher mark is very manageable in his bid to follow up. Triple Force, second over C&D earlier in the month, can give the selection a good run for the money if he gets into a rhythm a little sooner. A close third in that race, Thats My Boy Luke also rates a key player.
