Formscan  - Having proved too keen on his fourth-placed reappearance at Nottingham last month, HORNSEA BAY could be worth chancing with that run under his belt. An official rating of 88 on his handicap bow looks workable and his fitness could prove crucial. There are several interesting seasonal debutants on show, topped by Spectacular View, who did little wrong when runner-up in a decent novice at Kempton in December last year. Dante's Lad, Wild Nature and Brave Mission should have better days ahead too.
