Going - Good-Good to Soft in places.

Formscan  - The vote goes to YAKALEO, who shaped with significant promise when finishing third on his racecourse debut at Musselburgh in December. Nicky Richards' charge might not want ground conditions to deteriorate too much, though, having been withdrawn on account of soft ground at Kelso last month, but he ought to hold every chance if lining up. Irish raider Step Out has shown ability and is respected with a first-time tongue-tie applied, while point-to-point winner Kingston James is another to consider.
