Formscan  - Having supplemented two runner-up efforts with a breakthrough victory at Kempton, AL WATHBA is one to keep on the right side of. An official rating of 91 looks workable for the son of Wootton Bassett and he may be able to deny Waasil in his hat-trick bid. Karl Burke's colt ran out a ready winner on his nursery bow at Newbury and a 6lb higher mark is unlikely to prevent another bold showing. Fellow last-time-out winners Zarakova and Keep Grating add further spice to the mix.
