Going - Good to Firm. 
View all races Draw Analysis Result Odds Compare

Formscan  - POP DANCER arrives in fine form, having won at Goodwood last month before making all over course and distance. He forged clear in the closing stages and Tony Carroll's consistent sprinter is taken to confirm superiority with the runner-up Rebel Star. The latter could make more of a race of it given she reopposes on more favourable terms, while Merrimack could shape well in this lower grade.
