Formscan - BE AWARE had the unenviable task of chasing home Lulamba in the Henry VIII but he stuck to his guns well and although expected to be most effective over further, he possesses the necessary pace for this task. Alnilam's jumping let him down in that Sandown Grade 1, and again in the Wayward Lad at Kempton when Hansard was a couple of positions ahead of him in second. No Questions Asked could only manage third when sent off favourite for an Ascot Grade 2, but he travelled well and is interesting now back at 2m.
