Formscan  - This can go the way of GALEL, who arrives on the back of a career-best effort when narrowly denied over 7f here. John Butler's filly showed enough pace to suggest that she can handle the drop back in trip and she may have too much for Alafdhal, who has a 4lb penalty to overcome for a success over 5f here last week. Less than a length behind him in that contest was State Of Madness (second), who must enter calculations on the revised terms.
