Formscan  - Most of these have questions to answer, but not HIGHFIELD COMRADE following his win in a similar event at Southwell 10 days ago. The four-year-old did it well on that occasion and appears to be the safest pick. Havachoc's recent handicap form suggests that he could be the main danger. The rest inspire little confidence, but Warrior Lion is the pick of them.
