Formscan - Legal Reform backed up his Boxing Day win with a good second at Southwell and is likely to go well again, but preference is afforded to WILTSHIRE. William Haggas' charge caught the eye when keeping on from off the pace over 6f at Newcastle, so it's possible that a return to 7f holds the key to him now. Heathcliff was only beaten half a length into third at Kempton last time out and looks a real player from an unchanged mark.
