Going - Good to Firm.

Formscan  - The lightly-raced MARHABA THE CHAMP showed the benefit of his latest wind operation when winning a decent prize at York a fortnight ago. The son of Galileo has a live chance of following up off just a 2lb higher today and another big run can be expected. Honiton also won in good style last time out and is feared most, while the locally-trained Bad Company is the pick of the remainder.
