Formscan By Alan Magee - LIMESTONE RED gained his only previous victory over course and distance just over two years ago and there are strong grounds for believing the Tracey Collins-trained gelding can score again here. The five-year-old has advertised his claims since returning to the Polytrack and beat all bar Brandon Creek last month, with Rising Sky not enjoying the clearest of passages over two lengths back in seventh. The form of that race has been working out well since and Nicola Burns is again aboard. Heart Of Darkness has been staying on over a mile and now steps up in trip, while Slaney Swagger is another to consider.
