Formscan  - Somebody has filled the runner-up berth in five of his 12 previous starts and scores highly for reliability. However, he was well held when upped to 7f at Southwell and needs to settle better if he is going to get home over this stiffer course. EVOLVE, by contrast, was in the process of rallying when finishing fourth over 6f here and stepping up a furlong could be ideal at this stage. Maria Da Silva and Populus are also potential improvers.
