Formscan  - User Amistoso sets the standard with an official rating of 85 and he should make a good fist of things back in novice company, while Gulf Legend is another leading contender dropped in grade and has blinkers applied for the first time. However, although CATCH THE LIGHT was no match for a 101-rated rival at Salisbury last month, there is unlikely to be anything of a similar ilk lining up today and she's taken to step forward.
