Formscan - Since going handicapping, LION OF MALI has won three of his five starts and finished second in the other two, and made a successful return to turf when accounting for Eduardo Calderon at Leicester. He showed excellent resolution to justify short-priced favouritism and has only been raised 2lb. Euphonia seems to be much happier on grass and had three subsequent winners trailing in her wake when running out an emphatic winner at the same venue. Tekitoff also arrives on the back of a breakthrough victory, although that Doncaster form isn't as strong.
