Going - Good to Soft (Good in places). 

Formscan  - WISHING AND HOPING was a comprehensive winner of this race on his first run of the season last year and although he's 7lb higher this time around, Mel Rowley's charge is taken to repeat the feat again, with underfoot conditions sure to suit. Minellacelebration signed off last season with a victory at Fakenham and has shown a clear liking for this track in the past, having won this in 2020. Cloth Cap was pulled out on ground concerns at Chepstow a fortnight ago and merits respect if allowed to take his chance.
