Going - Good to Firm (Good in places). 
View all races Draw Analysis Result Odds Compare

Formscan  - Manila Scouse met trouble in running when beaten just a neck over 5f at Ripon on his previous outing, and a 3lb rise in the ratings seems fair. However, there could be some better treated rivals in the field and the nod goes to SO SMART, who was a decent third over the minimum distance at Nottingham last time. Having been dropped 2lb by the handicapper, David Evans' runner looks to have a good chance of getting his head in front. Last-time-out winner Birkenhead heads the remainder.
