Formscan - Lud'or was very impressive on his return to action at Bangor before acquitting himself with plenty of credit in third when sent off favourite at Newbury. He does need to prove his stamina for 3m, so ROYAL RAMBLER gets the vote. Emma Lavelle's charge finished sixth in the aforementioned Newbury contest before improving plenty for going up in trip when runner-up at Chepstow. That was a career-best effort and a 4lb rise doesn't appear likely to stop him from taking another step forward. Nab Wood, Tranquil Sea and Keable appeal most of the remainder.
