Formscan  - Not many arrive here with strong recent form, but MOUNT TEMPEST fits the bill after a taking success at Worcester last month, for which he has only been raised 4lb. Champion jockey Sean Bowen being in the saddle is another plus, and it may be that Riskintheground gives him the most to think about having been a creditable fourth in the Summer Plate at Market Rasen last time out. C&D winner Saint Segal is capable of being in the shake-up as well.
