Formscan  - NORTH VIEW needed only to be pushed out in the closing stages at Chelmsford to make a winning debut for Stuart Williams' yard. A 4lb rise is negated by Jack Dace's allowance and he looks one to keep on the right side of. Maximising remains unexposed on the back of a convincing success at Lingfield and could prove competitive in this higher grade, while Benacre and The Dragon King are not easily ruled out either.
