Formscan - DIGITAL has bounced back to form on his last couple of starts over C&D, winning just before Christmas before finishing second on New Year's Day. Ruth Carr's gelding makes plenty of appeal in his bid to go one better. La Rochette was one place behind the selection on the latter occasion and would be a threat if backing that performance up. Others to note are He's An Angel and Azucena.
