Formscan  - Punters will need to be in a forgiving mood to side with GA LAW, but it might pay to do so. Jamie Snowden's charge was last seen running poorly at Cheltenham in December but he was in good form prior to that, finishing runner-up in the Paddy Power Gold Cup, and this kind of scenario may bring out the best in the nine-year-old. Djelo impressed when winning the Peterborough at Huntingdon in December and is a fascinating contender up in distance, while Bravemansgame is classy on his day and he completes the shortlist.
