Formscan - BRUMMELL just came out on top in a similarly competitive handicap at Beverley five weeks ago and, entitled to improve for that first start since November, he could defy a 4lb rise in the ratings. Moonstone Boy was narrowly denied his own comeback victory at Musselburgh five days earlier and he is likely to be in the shake-up again. Water Of Leith and Irish Nectar are others to note.
