Formscan  - Penelope's Sister made every yard of the running to score over track and trip last week and should mount a bold bid, despite her 5lb penalty. However, BOWOOD showed more when making the frame at Doncaster last month and goes off an unchanged rating. If the five-year-old remains in similar form, he could be the one to beat. Forest Caper completes the shortlist.
