Formscan - FISTON DE BECON scored in comfortable fashion to complete a double at Hereford last month and a 5lb rise for that victory looks lenient. With the Olly Murphy yard bang in form, he could prove very hard to beat, with his main threat possibly being Gitche Gumee, who sports first-time cheekpieces after his third at Doncaster off a 3lb higher mark in December. Of the remainder, Onewayortother makes the most appeal on his handicap/chase debut.
