Formscan - This should be competitive, despite the low turnout. GREAT D'ANGE is suggested as the first one to consider after a close second over C&D and a literal reading of that form gives the Barry Brennan-trained gelding an edge over The Dream Goes On. With first-time blinkers needing to revive Mister Upton, top-weight Time To Bite could be the best alternative.
