Formscan By Gary Carson - BIG DEE should be up to winning off this kind of mark. The Vadamos gelding looked like a smart sort when winning a Down Royal bumper back in November 2023 but has been a bit disappointing over hurdles. He did show more though on his handicap debut here over Christmas, when third to King Kali, and a similar effort may be enough to collect now. He had Marelly behind in seventh that day and that rival has gone on to score at Gowran since. On revised terms he can hold that gelding again. Wild Wild Wind has been placed on her last two outings and is another to consider.
