Going - Good to Soft. 
View all races Result Odds Compare

Formscan  - Sail Away has undergone wind surgery since scoring by a comfortable 11 lengths over 3m at Ayr when last seen in April and he could get involved off a 9lb higher mark. However, recent Grand Sefton third FRERO BANBOU gets the vote as his mark has been left unchanged which could make him tough to beat in this grade. Kandoo Kid was an encouraging second over C&D last time and would be foolish to dismiss.
