Formscan  - PATONTHEBACK bounced back to form when a head second at Redcar three weeks ago and given that the third from that contest has won since, Gemma Tutty's gelding makes plenty of appeal off just a 1lb higher mark. Noisy Music has occupied the runner-up berth on both starts since winning over C&D in August and she edges out South Dakota Sioux and Chifa to be best of the rest.
