Good to Firm (Good in places) View all races

Formscan  - Turned out again quickly after dead-heating for first at Beverley last week, STAR START looks the one to beat under a 5lb penalty, with Miss Charli Parker retaining the ride. A taking winner over C&D on his penultimate outing in June, Unplugged must be a leading contender, as well as Highwaygrey, who has run with credit of late. Apodictique and Mass Consumption may also have a say in proceedings.
