Formscan - Roaring Ralph hasn't finished outside the top two in each of his last six outings and should remain competitive, but dual C&D winner KELPIE GREY has slipped to an attractive mark after his sixth at Musselburgh. That was his first start back from a break and it wouldn't be a huge surprise if he could get back on the winning trail. Novak is another to keep a close eye on.
