Formscan  - HELM ROCK didn't do himself any favours when racing wide at Wolverhampton last time out but he did well to finish third, and dropping back to 1m should suit. The booking of Billy Loughnane is eye-catching and the seven-year-old can regain the winning thread at the main expense of High Point, who has switched yards since scoring at Salisbury last October. Longlai and Tempus cannot be ruled out either.
