Formscan - KILDRUM hammered his rivals over C&D 12 days ago, beating his closest pursuer, the reopposing Gipsy Lee Rose (second), by 25 lengths. Even with an 11lb swing in the weights it's difficult to see the form being reversed, though it remains to be seen whether he'll be able to cope with the quick turnaround. Speak Of The Devil looked in need of the run when returning from a 109-day absence at Carlisle last month, but, with that run under his belt, he could post an improved effort.
