Formscan  - FRENCH SHIP showed no ill effects from a fall at Chepstow when scoring in fine style at Cheltenham last month. Open to further improvement, the five-year-old remains of interest, despite an 8lb rise. Lud'or romped home at Bangor when making a winning handicap debut. He should prove competitive in this tougher contest, while Personal Ambition looks fairly treated off his current mark and East India Express could bounce back to form representing last year's winning yard.
