Formscan  - NATIONAL HONOUR finished second to a smart type on his introduction at Newmarket and hasn't looked back since, defeating subsequent winners at Thirsk and Kempton. Charlie Appleby's colt has a mark of 90 to defy on his nursery debut but he looks more than capable, while his pedigree offers plenty of encouragement that he'll have no problem with the forecast ground conditions. The recently-gelded Shadow King might do better back at this venue, and Scienza is preferred to Rock Steady Beat.
