Formscan - FRERE D'ARMES put his poor effort at Taunton well behind him when scoring at Ludlow earlier in the month and this is an easier assignment. If the eight-year-old remains in similar form, he will prove very tough to beat. Presentandcounting got back to winning ways in easy style over a stronger contest at Catterick in November and is expected to mount a serious challenge. Bardenstown Lad is the pick of the remainder.
