Formscan  - REBEL EMPIRE failed to make an impression over the minimum trip at Ascot last week. This return to 6f will prove more to his liking and Richard Hannon's inmate has strong claims on his third at Newcastle in March. Fortamour won this in 2022 and last month's third back at this venue points to another big run from the veteran sprinter. Mister Sox bids for a hat-trick with solid claims, having scored nicely at Pontefract.
