Formscan  - Kingcormac has to be respected following his Hereford success last month, but the 10-year-old is 6lb higher now and this is much tougher. With that in mind, preference is for HAAS BOY, whose latest efforts over hurdles suggest that he may be on a good mark now returned to fences. Royal Mer edges out Passing Kate to be next best.
