Formscan  - King Of The Story has won three of his last five starts and had excuses when pulled up at Plumpton last time. He's preferred to top-weight Gore Point, but BEGIN THE LUCK looks worthy of another chance. He has returned from a layoff in fine fettle and, given he faces an easier assignment than when runner-up at Wincanton a week ago, Daisy Hitchins' charge is taken to pick up the winning thread.
