Formscan - CARNFUNNOCK had displayed good form in bumpers before getting off the mark at Down Royal earlier this month, and the son of Getaway is fancied to strike on his hurdling bow today. Maughold Head finished second behind an impressive winner over C&D last time out and he must be respected with improvement likely. The lightly-raced Paramaribo is another to consider following a handful of creditable efforts on the Flat, while One Mill Harbour shouldn't be underestimated either.
