Formscan  - Paul Midgley won this in 2022 and has two chances here, with Beverley fourth Silky Robin seemingly the best of them on his return from a wind operation. He can go well despite top-weight, but he may have to give way to MUSICAL DIVA. A beaten joint-favourite last time out at Beverley, she deserves a third win after numerous placed efforts. Southwell second Street Life is another to consider, with Rhys Elliott's 7lb claim a major bonus.
