Formscan - An emphatic winner over an extended 3m2f earlier this month, Shantou Express can go close off a 6lb raised mark. However, a shorter stamina test looks set to suit SCARPIA. Nicky Henderson's inmate was headed after the last over 3m1f on his latest outing at Huntingdon and a first-time tongue-tie can give him the edge. Hell Red also warrants a market check.
