Going - Good (Good to Firm in places). 

Formscan  - Dramatic Encore looked inconvenienced by a drop back in distance when landing the spoils in a four-runner affair at Plumpton recently and she merits respect in her follow-up bid. Although a return to an extended 2m5f should suit, a rise in class does demand more of the six-year-old, and BRAVE KNIGHT is more compelling. Paul Nicholls' charge got the better of a subsequent winner at Taunton 80 days ago and a 5lb higher mark looks surmountable. Ludlow scorer Royal Way is also worth a second look.
