Going - Good.

Formscan  - Whilst a few of these are making their seasonal returns, it could pay to side with the race-fit SAXON PRINCE. A step up in trip is likely to suit given that he went desperately close over 7f at Kempton latest, whilst a first run on the grass might prove vital to his progress too. Fickle Mcselfish and Sailor Batt have both been in decent form on the all-weather lately and are more appealing than some. Domination is also noted.
