Formscan  - Adam Nicol has his string in fine fettle at present and SPEIRIUIL could provide another winner. The six-year-old supplemented a good second over C&D when holding on to score at Kelso in December and a 5lb rise is effectively negated by Joshua Thompson's 5lb claim. Summergrounds is aiming to break a sequence of runner-up efforts, but should give another good account, while handicap debutant The Hatchet catches the eye stepping up in distance.
