Formscan  - Second at Kempton in September before occupying the same position over C&D recently, PENELOPE VALENTINE has far less to prove than many of these and she is taken to go one place better now. Bantz, who was third behind the selection last time out, might be best positioned to make a challenge, while Black Sky would need to improve on what he's shown so far but a step up in trip could work the oracle.
