Formscan - Having scored on four of his six chase outings this season, Dunkerque was denied by just a head on his latest start in a two-runner affair at Perth. Jennie Candlish's charge is a potential improver stepping up in distance and merits respect, but distance winner KI WOO is the most solid proposition. The Cokoriko gelding arrives on the back of a strong second in the Summer Cup at Uttoxeter and a similar performance may suffice. Snipe may chase the pair home.
