Formscan - After filling the runner-up spot in each of his last two outings, this might be the day for WIND YOUR NECK IN. Despite being put up 3lb for his latest effort at Catterick, the seven-year-old looks well placed to go one better. Shan't Wait has been thereabouts the last twice, most recently finishing third at Market Rasen, and takes a step back up in trip. Dartmhor looks best of the rest.
