Formscan  - MARTIN'S BRIG is already a three-time course winner who has shaped as if he is capable of adding another victory to his career tally. Dropping back down to 7f is no concern for the selection and he can get the better of Buttercross Flyer and Starshot, who are both effective over the trip and can make this competitive. Multiple course winner Spartan Fighter could also figure.
