Formscan  - Having posted creditable efforts in defeat at Yarmouth and Sandown this season, it could be worth chancing DESERT HEART on his handicap debut. An official rating of 79 looks workable judged on the three-year-old's latest fourth and a breakthrough victory could be on the horizon. Magellan Cloud and Qitaal both arrive on the back of sound efforts at Chester and warrant consideration, along with dual C&D winner Pol Roger.
