Formscan  - FINE INTERVIEW has the burden of top weight, but conditions look ideal for the son of Havana Grey. His three victories have all been over this trip on soft ground, with one over C&D, so he ticks a lot of boxes and although only third over 7f at Ascot last month, connections try cheekpieces to help him focus. Keep Warm has won three times over track and trip and warrants respect, as does Thunder Blue, who arrives in good form and will have no issues with the ground.
