Formscan  - The veteran Fortamour remains of interest bidding for a hat-trick of C&D wins, while Bright won nicely here in December and also merits respect. However, the four-year-old HUNDRED CAPS has more scope for improvement after scoring at Southwell on his first start since October. Julie Camacho's charge found plenty for pressure in the closing stages to win a shade cosily in the end and is taken to confirm superiority over Sergeant Pep.
