Formscan By John O'Riordan - The Gordon Elliott-trained HONESTY POLICY is taken to follow up his Grade 1 win at Aintree. A winner of three of his four career runs over flights, the five-year-old was bought by J.P. McManus prior to that recent success. With the speed to win over the minimum trip and the stamina to finish runner-up in a point-to-point, he looks to have it all. While this is arguably his stiffest test to date, the son of Jukebox Jury should be up to the task. Cheltenham winner Jasmin De Vaux hadn't convinced with his jumping prior to that commanding success. Provided he puts in an error free round again, he has to go close. Unbeaten hurdler Jarrive De Mee also merits respect.
