Formscan - In an open race marginal preference is for IF NOT FOR DYLAN. The veteran failed to fire when last seen at Cartmel in May but he arrives here just 3lb higher than when winning easily at Doncaster in February and he could bounce back. The unexposed Green Angel merits a market inspection on his handicap/chase bow, while No Regrets completes the shortlist.
