Going - Good to Soft (Soft in places). 

Formscan  - JASMIN DE GRUGY has only finished outside the top two once since handicapping, and even then he was third. A trip to the Punchestown Festival back in the spring was rewarded with a silver medal in Listed company and he should have more to offer this campaign. Cruz Control struck on the Grand National card for the second year running and will be a threat if fully wound up. Deafening Silence also returns to the fray with claims, whereas Konfusion unseated at Haydock just last week and is out again for quick redemption.
