Formscan - ALRIGHT DAI arrives in fine fettle having won over hurdles at Taunton before making a successful start over fences at Fontwell. Despite a 7lb rise, Neil Mulholland's gelding makes plenty of appeal stepping back up in trip. Le Grand Vert bounced back to form when returning to the UK at Ayr and a repeat of that display would give him every chance. Realisation and Upfordebate head the remainder.
