Formscan  - GORDON GREY has been in fine fettle in both codes of late and is likely to prove a warm order to follow up his 11-length romp at Epsom. A 5lb penalty for the five-year-old looks far from insurmountable and a sixth career victory could be imminent. The biggest threat may emerge from Fast Steps, who arrives here in better heart than most. Vaynor may fare best of the remainder with his sights lowered.
