Formscan - An interesting contest in which Hurlerontheditch has a chance to atone for an agonising last-fence fall at Warwick on his chasing bow when well clear. He has to go on the shortlist, despite a 10lb rise, but Paul Nicholls' mud-loving TAKE YOUR TIME hinted at better things to come when gamely defying a long absence at Newton Abbott on his chasing bow. Pimlico Point and Lagonda are others who should build on encouraging fencing debuts.
