Formscan - GIVEGA put his Grade 2 disappointment at Warwick in January behind him when making all over C&D last month, and an opening mark of 133 could prove to be lenient. Zoffany Bay finished a fine second on his first run for Peter Fahey at Ascot last month and this keen-going type is feared most now dropped to 2m. Iceo wasn't disgraced when finishing second on his handicap debut here in January and is another to consider off only 1lb higher.
