Going - Good to Soft (Soft in places). 

Formscan  - There was plenty to like about Orestina's winning debut on the all-weather course here and she sets a decent standard. However, there are some interesting newcomers to this discipline and it could be worth taking a punt on point-to-point scorer EAGLE WARRIOR. The five-year-old is a half-brother to useful hurdler/chaser Taponthego and he would take all the beating if sharing the same ability. Dilrisk is a debutant who warrants close inspection in the market too.
