Formscan  - UBETTERSEETHIS faced a stiff test in a class 2 event at Ayr last month and could take advantage of a significant drop in class. Still unexposed over this trip, the forecast going could help to bring his proven stamina into play. Empress Olivia's form has a solid profile and is a potential improver on just her second start in a nursery. The consistent Calafiori and handicap debutant Ryefield also command respect.
