Formscan  - JACK HYDE was thrown in deep last year and again when claiming a midfield finish in the Imperial Cup last month. Fergal O'Brien's charge returned to winning ways with a narrow triumph at Ludlow most recently and a 6lb rise for that success does not look insurmountable. Point winner The Dog Thief struck at Market Rasen and has the potential to rate higher now sent handicapping, while the veteran Go Dante is another worthy of consideration.
