Formscan  - Charlie Appleby has won three of the last five renewals, including last year's contest with the subsequent Group 1 winner Shadow Of Light, and BECKFORD'S FOLLY is seemingly held in high regard based on his entries in the Gimcrack and Mill Reef. He returned the impressive winner over C&D in June and the runner-up has boosted that form since. Ahead Of Fashion and Daretobedifferent look those most likely to fight it out for second.
