Formscan  - Speed Davis accounted for Bold Light (second) when winning over 2m1f at Musselburgh a month ago and is likely to confirm that form here. That said, marginal preference is for BREIZH RIVER, who has been knocking hard on the door of late and looks to have plenty in his favour on this occasion. Lightning Flash also has solid form claims and completes the shortlist.
