Formscan  - The family tradition of excelling with middle-distance horses has only been enhanced since Charlie Johnston took over the training license from his father, and although SAX APPEAL has limitations, he is still on a feasible mark and this could be a good piece of placement as he bids to complete a hat-trick off just 4lb higher than for the latest of his two recent Wolverhampton successes. Charlie's Choice also won at the same venue latest and is feared most under a 5lb penalty. Hitched is another solid option.
