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

Formscan  - Frankness arrives here in good form after running on strongly to score over 6f at Salisbury last time, and he looks primed to offer another bold bid. However, he must defy a 4lb rise in the ratings and the reopposing Al Simmo (second) is on 2lb better terms with that rival for a one-length defeat. Therefore, slight preference is for GALE FORCE MAYA, who appears to be on an attractive mark following her disappointing effort in a valuable heritage handicap at York last time.
