Formscan - Although he tasted defeat on his hurdling bow at Southwell, that experience should stand MOMENTS AWAY in good stead. Having finished fifth in a Grade 2 bumper at the Aintree Festival, the five-year-old remains with plenty of potential and Sean Bowen retains the ride. Merlin Allen finished ahead of the selection in third at the Merseyside venue and is a live threat. Smart Flat performer Insanity and the Dan Skelton-trained Presley add further spice to the mix.
