FormscanBy Tom Weekes - SHOWHOUND ran well on his first start for new connections over today’s course-and-distance last month. A dual UK winner, he is ground-versatile and while raised 4lb following his recent runner-up effort, finished nicely clear of the third-placed El Bello which reopposes today. A reproduction of that effort would give him every chance. Nine-time winner Notforalongtime has been running consistently well and while well suited by this distance, has a wide draw in 23. Six-time winner Mullacash Buzz has a similar profile and continues in good form, but has the widest draw in 26.
