Formscan - ASTA LA VISTA was second to a now 117 rated opponent on his final start for Charlie Longsden and a repeat of that level may be sufficient for him to make a winning debut for his new connections. The consistent County Champs, whose yard has a good record at Fontwell and won this in 2024, and Hawa Jumeirah are other strong contenders to monitor closely in the betting market, while Ami Bondhu has gone well here in the past and is dangerous to underestimate.
