Formscan - BERTIE'S WISH caught the eye when securing a three-length success over 2m1f at Sedgefield last month and demands respect, despite a 7lb rise. He does have to shoulder joint top-weight with Killaloan, who scored by a length on his handicap debut over an extended 2m at Taunton most recently. Paul Nicholls' inmate should not be taken lightly and can give the selection plenty to think about, while Mamoon Star is another to bear in mind.
