Formscan - Pure Legend recorded some decent form when trained in France and he's worth a market check starting out for new connections. Mr Swivell also commands respect after making steady progress in his four starts this season. Regardless, York winner NORTHERN EXPRESS is heading in the right direction and a 2lb nudge up in the ratings may prove to be lenient.
