Formscan - KIENTZHEIM raced too keenly to do herself justice in a race she was strongly fancied to win at Newbury. However, Nicky Henderson's French import is better than that and can atone if she bounces back to the sort of form that saw her make an impressive debut for the yard at Kempton's Christmas fixture. Adonis runner-up St Pancras is a live danger, despite the four-year-old carrying a penalty for winning the Scottish Triumph Hurdle at Musselburgh. Dambuster is a notable recruit from the Flat to keep an eye on.
