Formscan  - OUR GUIDE can continue on an upward curve. He probably didn't beat much at Stratford but it takes a nice horse to win in novice company under a penalty and, switching to handicaps for this assignment, the progressive five-year-old doesn't look harshly treated off 118. The market may tell us more about Sure Touch, who hasn't been seen since October but did win well that day over fences at Market Rasen. Paddy De Pole is interesting, despite also having an absence to overcome.
