Formscan  - A taking winner on his penultimate start here in April, PORTSMOUTH since ran with plenty of credit when second at Goodwood on his first try this distance, and the form of that race has worked out particularly well in the interim. Andrew Balding's charge gets the vote ahead of unexposed handicap debutant Bubbles Wonky, as well as Blake, who may improve for going up in trip after a determined success over 1m at Sandown. Others to note include Golden West, Persica and Whiskey Pete.
