Formscan - Having routed his rivals once again when scoring at Hereford last month, Western General warrants respect in his hat-trick bid. However, a further 10lb rise demands another career-best performance from Joe Tizzard's charge and preference is for fellow in-form rival SAINT SEGAL. Jane Williams' gelding has posted three creditable efforts in defeat since scoring at Newbury in December and he looks ready to regain the winning thread. Light N Strike is the pick of the remainder.
