Formscan - MR FREEDOM returned from over a year off with a fine effort to finish third at Salisbury, despite not getting the clearest of runs. The handicapper left him on the same mark following that display, which gives him an ideal opportunity to get his head back in front. Cruden was fifth in the aforementioned contest, but is better judged on his nose second over C&D the time before. Maasai Mara completes the shortlist.
