Going - Good (Good to Firm in Places). 
View all races Draw Analysis Result Odds Compare

Formscan  - A wide-open contest but the lightly-raced REAL DREAM gets the vote. Sir Michael Stoute's gelding won with authority on his return to action at Kempton earlier in the month and a 5lb rise may not prevent him from completing a hat-trick. Sam Cooke displayed a willing attitude last season and may not be far away if resuming in the same heart, while cases can also be made for the unexposed La Yakel and Crystal Delight.
