Formscan  - MATCHLESS accounted for his nearest rival by over a length in this grade at Southwell last time and he now has his first attempt at this distance. The seven-year-old has shaped as if he will stay and, if doing so, he could prove tough to beat. Belvedere Blast finished second at Cartmel on his most recent start and should remain competitive off a 1lb higher mark. My Friend Yeats steps back into handicaps after his maiden victory and is another to note.
