Formscan - FOUND ON showed a willing attitude en route to registering three consecutive wins over fences and is very much the one to beat again. Likely to make the running, he is taken to have too much for Twig, who is respected but might find this a tough transition from the amateur ranks of hunter chases and point-to-points. Skandiburg is tried with a tongue-tie and cheekpieces combination, but needs to improve on his two previous efforts over fences. Arrivederci, who was placed in a Grade 3 over hurdles, has the scope to progress further now going chasing, but he has never raced over this trip before, so has a question to answer about his stamina.
