Formscan - Having proved a little underwhelming since finishing second at Warwick in November, Dig Deep may have his work cut out against the penalised winners. Seaniecon looked a dour stayer when scoring over an extended 3m1f at Hereford and may find this drop back in distance on the sharp side, which could leave the door open for KADASTRAL. Although Dan Skelton's inmate was no match for subsequent Supreme runner-up Sober Glory at Newbury, he holds obvious claims in these calmer waters.
