Formscan - An important clue to the outcome of this race could be the Wincanton clash between STORMIN CROSSGALES (first) and Cap Du Mathan (second) in November, and it is the Tom George-trained six-year-old who is taken to uphold the form on just his second go over fences, with the step up in trip expected to suit. The progressive Whistleinthedark is two from two over the larger obstacles so has to be considered closely too.
