Formscan - LUNAR DISCOVERY had plenty in hand when scoring over an extended 2m3f at Chepstow during the Christmas period. Given that the second, third and fourth have all won since, Robbie Llewellyn's mare is hard to oppose off just a 7lb higher mark. Tapley is likely to be in the mix once again, while Classic King will find this easier than the Pertemps Final he contested a couple of weeks ago.
