Formscan  - An open contest on paper in which the vote goes to SWEEPER SYSTEM. Having shown relatively little on his first two starts over hurdles, he improved when finishing third at Southwell and the rise in distance on handicap debut gives him every chance of taking another step in the right direction. Forest Blaze's recent efforts at Ayr must bring him into calculations, especially with a first-time visor applied. Others for the shortlist are Ionity, Eric Carmen and Toby Two Scoops.
