Formscan By Donal Murphy - With race fitness on his side, BUNTING appears the safest option. The French import has a similar profile to stable companion Highwind, the selection in the previous contest. A winner on debut at Fontainebleau last year, the Tony Bloom-owned four-year-old followed up on his first start over flights at Limerick. Tried at the highest level in three outings since, he reverts to the level now and should appreciate this drop in class. The 106-rated Uxmal is the danger. The five-year-old won on his fifth start at Tramore in September and is clearly going in the right direction after he was since beaten by just a neck in Listed company at Saint-Cloud. Six-time winner Dads Lad and Enjoy The Dream, who won a Grade 2 over flights, are both returning from over a year off and are likely to need the run.
