Going - Good to Firm (Good in places). 
View all races Draw Analysis Result Odds Compare

Formscan  - Things haven't gone to plan for Tabletalk in Group races this year but he could be revived by first-time cheekpieces and stepping back in grade. However, fellow class dropper ALLONSY is highly capable at this level and, having won under Ed Greatrex before, she boasts slightly more appealing credentials. Useful hurdler Minella Rescue warrants close inspection on his belated Flat-race debut, while Alsakib is classy on his day but needs a revival based on recent form.
