Formscan - Country Mile made light work of the opposition on his seasonal bow at Uttoxeter and has to be taken seriously with that run under his belt. However, Dan Skelton's charge does have something to find on the ratings with the returning QUEBECOIS. The seven-year-old didn't appear to see out the 4m trip in the Scottish National, and a repeat of his cracking third in the Ultima would make him difficult to beat. El Capitaine shouldn't be far behind.
