Formscan  - FIRST OFFICER was no match for the potentially smart Race To The Stars when runner-up on the July Course last month. This is less competitive and, back on his last winning mark with Jane Chapple-Hyam's yard in fine form, he gets another chance. Alternatives abound in an open affair, with recent Windsor winner King Of Berkshire a threat if allowed his own way in front. Progressive pair Charles Darnay and Zurna are others of interest.
