Formscan - The in-form Meisterzinger will be popular after his brace of wins in classified events at Kempton and he is respected running off 4lb lower than his last winning handicap rating. However, his two previous efforts on turf need to be bettered and he is worth taking on. Having won from the same mark at Yarmouth last summer, FAST FORWARD fits the bill on these terms and he is effective with some give underfoot. Hill Station completes the shortlist.
