Formscan  - MY OLD MATE won twice at Windsor during the summer before being turned over at Lingfield, when carrying a 6lb penalty, and Windsor. That being said, the Moores' gelding has still been holding his form off higher ratings and may well have more to give. Royal Bodyguard returned to winning ways at Newmarket and has to enter calculations, despite a 4lb rise. Others to note include Eastern Veil and Likeness.
