Formscan - FAIRLAWN SKIPPER scored over a shorter trip here on his recent chasing debut. Mickey Bowen's inmate returned the determined winner that day and given that he's won at this trip over hurdles, the six-year-old can find the improvement to defy a 7lb rise. Upfordebate won nicely on his seasonal return at Perth. He could have a say in proceedings once again, but Sir Carnegie and Inis Oirr have plenty to find with him on that Perth run and Golden Point is returning from a layoff.
