Going - Good.

Formscan  - EVOCATIVE SPARK has become frustrating with his five top three finishes recently, but he appears to have plenty in his favour. Two wins and three places at Chester prove he handles the track better than most, while a pair of victories over this trip ticks another box. He could prove hard to beat if running to form, and his last success was off this mark. Vince Le Prince ran well when third at Thirsk and could be his biggest rival, while Island Native is another to consider dropping back in trip.
