Formscan - AL BAAHY proved there was no fluke about his Wolverhampton success when he readily followed up at Lingfield 12 days ago. Those victories came in classified company but he seems revitalised and won't need much of a step forward to successfully revert to a handicap here. Amarachi is consistent at this sort of level and is a big danger given she is still unexposed over this trip. Aim For The Bull and River Wharfe are other alternatives to consider.
