Formscan - Motawaazy won five times from 11 starts in 2021 and showed he retains scope when he made a successful return over C&D in April. However, he hasn't been seen since and is reluctantly passed over in favour of the race-fit ADMIRALITY, who is worth forgiving a modest effort in the cavalry charge of the Bronze Cup at Ayr last time. He is better judged on his previous run at Thirsk. That form has been strongly boosted since and, off a 1lb lower mark, Roger Fell's gelding looks worth a punt. Black Friday and Pearl Of Qatar complete the shortlist.
