Formscan  - HEY TRU BLUE made light work of the opposition when gaining a breakthrough victory in a maiden at Doncaster 21 days ago. An opening mark of 86 looks workable and, stepping up in trip, there could be more to come. Sir Albert continued his upward trajectory when completing a double on his handicap bow at Chester earlier this month and may serve the most resistance to the selection, ahead of Amazing Journey, who boasts a similar profile.
