Formscan - At the age of 10, Eligible has suddenly discovered a new zest for life, although a further 6lb rise may thwart his hat-trick bid. King Of Ithaca also arrives in winning form after registering his fourth track-and-trip triumph shortly before Christmas, but HITCHED is taken to gain a deserved success. David Simcock's six-year-old has made the frame in four of his last five outings and is 1lb well-in following last week's narrow Wolverhampton defeat.
