Formscan  - This is a real conundrum and cases can be stated for many. The hat-trick seeking Man Of La Mancha, Redcar winner Skipper and I Still Have Faith are just a trio of live contenders based on their peak efforts. However, there could be some value to had with EARL OF ROCHESTER, who was well fancied when second to Gamrai (a leading fancy engaged in the 4:45 here) when last seen. Picked up for 30,000gns after that effort, this low-milage son of Dubawi could be a surprise package from 1lb lower.
