Formscan  - ONE BIG BANG produced a career-best effort when second at Haydock last time out and a 3lb rise could prove lenient. The six-year-old has been a revelation since joining the James Owen yard, and it may be that Strackan gives him the most to think about following a pair of comfortable victories at Uttoxeter and Bangor-on-Dee. Pulled-up in the aforementioned contest at Haydock having won his previous two starts, Catch Him Derry looks capable of bouncing back, while Idefix De Ciergues is another progressive sort in search of the hat-trick.
