Formscan - Force And Valour won at Meydan back in January. He's mostly consistent and could land a blow on his return to action, while Sea Baaeed debuts for Ian Willliams' yard with a shout. However, VALVANO has faced a couple of stiff assignments since returning the comfortable winner at Southwell in August and Ralph Beckett's charge could launch another strong challenge back on the all-weather.
