Formscan  - Homme De Fer boasts a progressive profile and a 3lb nudge up the ratings for his latest triumph at Lingfield is unlikely to prevent another bold showing. However, both of the five-year-old's victories have come over 7f and dual C&D winner CLASSIC SPEED is more compelling. Brian Toomey's charge returned to form with a close-up second here last month and he looks ready to strike. First Encounter is also worth a second look.
