Formscan  - Having posted a respectable fourth on his hurdle bow at Uttoxeter earlier this month, Marsiac should put that experience to good use. The four-year-old cannot be dismissed, but it could be worth taking a punt on one of the newcomers to this discipline, with IN THE AGE topping the bill. Dan Skelton's charge wasn't disgraced when finishing third under a penalty at Southwell in Feburary and a race of this nature looks within his compass. Big Ticket and Tiddesley Wood are others of interest.
