Formscan - PHANTOM GOLD posted a respectable effort to finish second on his handicap debut at Southwell and looks capable of taking another step forward, with the additional two and a half furlongs likely to be a suitable test. A C&D winner last month, Makinbecon is a plausible danger, although Saucats was a close second in that race and he could have a bigger say being 3lb better off. The latter was stretched over 2m4f at Uttoxeter last time and reverting to this trip could be a good more.
