Formscan  - DOUBLE POWERFUL is a smart handicap hurdler and got back on track following a mediocre stint over fences and a mishap at Cheltenham when finishing second in the Lanzarote at Kempton last time. On that evidence, he's very much the one to beat. Of the others, course scorer Florida Dreams should run his usual honest race and is noted along with Sonigino.
