Fri 2nd Jan

Formscan  - Buraback hasn't won since last April, off a mark of 60, but he showed signs of a return to form with a length-and-three-quarter fourth at Chelmsford last month and, having slipped to a rating of 58, he has an obvious chance. However, BIBENDUM arrives in good heart after a victory and a third at Newcastle, where he was perhaps left with too much to do, and he could get back to winning ways. Early Release is the pick of the remainder.
