Formscan  - PERSONAL AMBITION likely found the testing conditions against him when a distant third in a Grade 2 at Sandown last month. Ben Pauling's inmate was quite taking prior to that disappointment when landing the spoils at Warwick and he can get back on the winning trail here. Inoui Machin receives 7lb from the selection and is feared most on his return to an extended 2m, although any market support for newcomer Skiffle Man would be interesting.
