Formscan  - Classic King took a step forward to fill the runner-up spot here in April and that effort reads well in the context of this race, so he has to be considered. However, he could play second fiddle to a Paul Nicholls-trained runner once more, this time in the shape of BENY NAHAR ROAD. The four-year-old is a fair performer on the Flat and he could make an impression on his hurdling debut. Laser Focus makes his first start for the Alexandra Dunn yard and can fight it out for the places.
