Formscan - PERSEVERANTS was no match for an impressive winner in this last year, but the son of Zoffany is 4lb lower now and would appear to hold excellent claims in his bid to go one better. Beelzebub has been running well on the all-weather and must enter the reckoning, for all that he does need to improve on last year's turf form. Broken Spear shaped with encouragement on his reappearance at Newcastle and is not without a chance.
