Formscan - JASMIN DE GRUGY, who recorded a hat-trick over hurdles before he made a winning chasing debut over the extended 2m4f at Southwell in November, is progressing nicely and has a good chance of adding to his tally. An 11lb higher mark demands more of the selection but he could still be hard to beat with today's longer trip a potential source of further improvement. Sound And Fury and New Order rate the chief threats on these terms.
