Going - Good to Soft. 
View all races Result Odds Compare

Formscan  - The progressive NO DRAMA THIS END is hard to oppose after impressive displays in winning Grade 2 hurdles the last twice. Paul Nicholls, who has an excellent record in this race, seems to have another rising star on his hands and nominated this as a logical target straight after the gelding's exciting display when winning at Sandown earlier in the month. Starzand and Kalkbrenner are others on the upgrade, while the unbeaten Montemares faces more of an acid test after a couple of bloodless wins in lesser company.
