Formscan - CAWTHORNE CRACKER improved for the return to hurdling when runner-up at Bangor. He'll likely be sharper for that first outing since July and looks to have strong claims off his current mark. Fine Point posted his best effort for a while on the fast ground at Sedgefield recently. It would be no surprise if Adam Nicol's five-year-old found himself in contention and he's taken to confirm latest running with the veteran Scots Poet.
