Formscan - IRANDANDO HAS returned from over three years on the sidelines to spring a surprise at Southwell before losing little in defeat when second at Ayr. The winner went on to contest this week's Martin Pipe and there doesn't appear to be anything of a similar level in here so Sam Allwood's top-weight looks to have an excellent chance. Recent Ludlow runner-up Dartmouth Castle is undoubtedly the main threat, although The Shanachie showed promise in a Kelso bumper and could progress for the switch to hurdles.
