Formscan  - KING'S CROWN won over C&D before running on late to finish a close second back here last month. It could pay to stick with Michael Dods' sprinter, given he looks a safer proposition than Mesaafi in his current frame of mind. The latter has been in the mix over 6f on the Polytrack of late and drops in trip with a shout. Hover On The Wind could shape well again having won a lower grade sprint at the track last time.
