Formscan By Mark Nunan - CAPE COD is vulnerable to unexposed rivals but the 93-rated colt looks the one to beat. A close third over this trip at Punchestown, he had Enceladus over three lengths behind when beaten at odds-on over 1m1f at the Curragh. Stamina seems to be his main attribute and Jack Cleary may well try to make all on him. Breaking Dawn and Kactus Jack both ran creditably on debut over 7f here and the latter may fare best of the pair over this trip. The selection's stablemate Choir Boy is out of a Ribblesdale winner and is one to note on debut, along with Handani who is out of a 1m4f Listed winner from the family of Harzand. %0A
