Formscan - Having had the measure of the in-form Surrey Lord and Moveit Like Minnie in separate recent encounters, there is plenty to like about the way CAME FROM NOWHERE is developing. He looked ahead of his mark with a cosy win at Hereford just before Christmas and a 7lb rise could underestimate him. Faivoir, who is a previous course winner over fences and rated much higher in that sphere, is potentially a big danger on these terms. Marche D'aligre is another with each-way prospects.
