Formscan  - The hat-trick seeking Digger One has another 6lb rise to contend with after scoring on the all-weather at Kempton, but he is unbeaten in handicaps and commands the utmost respect. That said, PORT GEORGE may have his measure. The son of Golden Horn clearly benefited from a break when getting off the mark on his return at Thirsk in July and the step up in trip appears likely to yield further progression. No More Bolero and An Bradan Feasa add further spice to what looks a competitive race on paper.
