Formscan  - Second at Carlisle last month, CROWNTHORPE followed that good effort with a respectable fifth in a tougher event than this over C&D and Alan Brown's veteran could launch a strong challenge. Spring Festival was narrowly beaten in a classified contest at Ayr recently and steps up in distance with a shout, while Straya won over this trip at the same track in July and remains unexposed on the all-weather.
