Formscan - Several of these have been struggling to find their form of late and with that in mind, BOOK OF LIFE and Thats My Boy Luke are suggested as the pair to focus on. The latter hinted at a revival when third over C&D last month and is notable off 1lb lower. However, the former has shown more consistency this season and won't need to raise his game by much to gain a deserved first win of the campaign. Approaching Dawn and King Sharja are the pick of the remainder.
