Fri 12th Dec

Formscan  - It's hard to ignore the claims of ELDORADO ALLEN after convincingly beating Can You Call (third) and Fugitif (fifth) at this venue last month. Joe Tizzard's charge was having his first start back and the 11-year-old remains on a workable rating, so he looks the one to beat. Torn And Frayed is a C&D winner who accounted for Le Milos at Aintree two starts ago and he's likely to mount a bold bid from the front.
