Formscan - C'EST DIFFERENT has improved since going handicapping, winning a conditional riders' event at Carlisle before following up at Chepstow on Saturday. Sam Thomas' charge doesn't escape a penalty this time but the progressive five-year-old is unlikely to have reached the ceiling of his ability just yet. The Secret Pearl was keeping on into fourth over 2m1f here latest and the return to further looks a real positive. Rock Hurley is also noted.
