Formscan  - A breakthrough victory in a classified stakes event should have done VELVET VULCAN's confidence the world of good. A 5lb penalty on this switch to handicap company appears workable given the manner of that triumph and a quick-fire double could be on the cards. Trusty Scout has posted several creditable efforts in defeat at this level of late and Derek Shaw's gelding is feared most, although an improved effort from the distance-dropping Destinado wouldn't be a surprise either.
