Formscan - RAYSHAM showed improved form last autumn. A beaten favourite when third at Redcar in October, Declan Carroll's four-year-old could prove a stronger horse this term and looks on a workable mark for his reappearance. Charencey is not without a chance based on his best efforts last season, while Mooretown Lad has shown up to better effect on the all-weather of late and could make his presence felt.
