Going - Hurdle: Soft; Chase: Good to Soft-Soft in places. 

Formscan  - DOES HE KNOW boasts a healthy strike-rate over fences and his class might just see him through this latest test, with first-time cheekpieces applied. Admittedly, history is against the selection in terms of weight-carrying statistics, but the lightly-raced nine-year-old is a sturdy jumper who can make the most of dropping in class as he bids to buck the trend of top-weights being overhauled in this race. The hat-trick seeking Some Scope is an obvious alternative given he had plenty in hand when scoring over 3m here last time out. However, he is up another 10lb for that success and this is a much deeper race. Erne River also has a good record here and is dangerous to ignore, while Sandown winner Java Point also enters calculations.
