Formscan By Tom Weekes - BUDDY BATT has been running well over today’s course-and-distance in recent months and should again compete. Rated 80 at his peak in 2023, the selection’s form dipped prior to scoring last November and while he has now climbed back to 77, is race-fit and has a good all-weather record. Previous course-and-distance winner Red Evolution is a capable type and while he should do well on turf this year, should benefit from today’s reappearance. Cuban Grey has been running well and is a six-time winner at this distance.
