Formscan - If Not For Dylan was said to have benefitted from the application of first-time cheekpieces (retained) when successful at Sedgefield last month but, though a case can be made for him again, this is more demanding. The Paddy Pie and Magic Dancer have been in good form recently and both are likely to be in the thick of things, but the Neil Mulholland-trained GARINCHA is fancied to get his name on the scoresheet. He failed to back up his Bangor success when occupying fourth place at Exeter last month, but the son of Ask remains unexposed over fences and he could bounce back.
