Going - Good (Good to Firm in places).

Formscan  - Pop The Champagne has run with credit on both attempts over hurdles this summer and the eight-year-old is likely to benefit from stepping up in trip. Manorbank remains open to improvement, but the vote goes to MY CHIQUITA. Runner-up at Aintree in May, a 2lb rise is unlikely to stop her from gaining a third career success in this sphere.
