Formscan  - COLONIAL EMPIRE is a standout in this contest, having won comfortably at Leicester earlier in the month and a 4lb rise for that success may not be enough to prevent him from going in again. Half The Freedom holds strong claims on his penultimate effort at Worcester, while Barrier Peaks could be on a feasible opening mark on his handicap debut. Fiamette, Mind Hunter and My Granny Lily complete the shortlist.
