Going - Good (Good to Firm in places). 
View all races Result Odds Compare

Formscan  - Although it was too early to tell how competitive KITESURFER would have been when falling at the ninth hurdle at Uttoxeter last month, he likely has more to come over staying distances judged on his penultimate 3m2f victory at Fontwell. Jamie Snowden's gelding is fancied to go close if over that mishap and he edges the verdict ahead of Hillsin. The six-year-old finished second in the same race as the selection's fall and another prominent showing is forecast. Last-time-out C&D winners Red Hugh and Kiss My Face are also noted.
