Going - Hurdle: Good-Good to Soft in places; Chase: Good to Soft-Good in places. 

Formscan  - SKI LODGE finished just over a length in front of Sole Solution (third) in second when the pair made their chasing debuts at Uttoxeter earlier this month and it would be no surprise to see him confirm that form. Alan King's charge is a course winner and is likely to have lots more to offer. Paddy O'Mahler powered clear to return to winning ways at Newcastle and should remain competitive, despite having a 5lb higher mark to contend with.
