Formscan - RARE EDITION has only had the one go at this distance, when turned over at odds-on in the Sidney Banks last year, but it shouldn't be a problem and he could still be ahead of his mark on the back of a comfortable success at Kempton last month. Rambo T did it easily at Newbury, while course winner Monviel returns to hurdles after a spell over the larger obstacles. Last year's winner Irish Hill and the improving Bad are capable of being in the shake-up as well.
