Formscan  - Scarlet Moon has taken well to the winter game and followed a breakthrough Warwick victory with a creditable fourth in Listed company at Aintree. It might be difficult to concede weight, though, particularly against FALLS OF ACHARN. The son of Sea The Moon signed off his Flat career with Jessica Harrington with a Leopardstown/Cork brace, which will have played no small part in him then fetching 105,000gns at the sales, and Paul Nicholls does well up here. Belaya River showed some ability at Newbury and is another to consider.
