Formscan - HELMSLEY returned to form when second to an improver at Chester recently and would appear to have every chance of going one place better on this occasion. Qitaal also occupied the runner-up spot when beaten a head at Ripon last time and is the obvious danger ahead of Mao Shang Wong, who won't find this as taxing as his most recent start at York.
