Formscan - Following a string of lacklustre performances, HURRICANE BAY bounced back to form in fine style at Huntingdon and a subsequent 5lb rise still leaves him on a 5lb lower mark than when winning this contest 12 months ago. He gets the vote to edge out Coastguard Station, whose last couple of efforts off a 1lb higher rating have been encouraging. Nickelforce rates best of the remainder, although he possibly needs to come down another pound or two before returning to the winner's enclosure.
