Formscan  - The still low-mileage Altobelli is an obvious starting point after his C&D win last month and should make a bold bid to overcome a 5lb higher mark. Joyeux Machin is also high on the shortlist after hinting at a revival at Wetherby a fortnight ago. However, a low weight has been beneficial in recent renewals and, with that in mind, the progressive PATRIOTIK could be worth chancing on the back of a good second at this level over 2m4f at Aintree on Boxing Day. Classic King and Country Park are other appealing each-way options.
