Formscan - Conor Rabbitt helped get the best out of Wee Alki over the extended 2m7f here, with the six-year-old deservedly breaking through. BUZZ ICECLEAR also drops in distance on the back of a first victory, but there may be slightly more substance to his Ayr defeat of a Gordon Elliott raider and, as that was his handicap debut, he potentially has more scope for improvement. Palm Beach is another to arrive on the back of a win, although that came back in July and he has swapped stables since.
