Formscan  - It's been a while since LE MILOS' last chase success, but this will be the first time Dan Skelton's charge has contested a veterans' event. He performed with enough credit at Chepstow recently to suggest that he can still be a force and, from 2lb below that mark, he is fancied to regain the winning sequence. Grandads Cottage put it a rare below-par effort when pulled up at Market Rasen last month but he could bounce right back in first-time cheekpieces. Smarty Wild is another to consider.
