Formscan  - INTHEWATERSIDE may have disappointed here on his penultimate start, but stepping back up to this sort of trip had a huge part to play in him scoring on his handicap debut at Lingfield's Winter Million fixture. Conditions should be in his favour once more and Paul Nicholls' six-year-old is preferred to recent Plumpton winner Idy Wood, as well as Phantomofthepoints, who was narrowly denied at Ayr on his hurdling debut. Bucksy Des Epeires and Vincenzo are capable of being in the shake-up as well.
