Formscan  - Reporter failed to supplement his Windsor success when only fourth at Chepstow last time, but he might be worth another chance. Virtue Temperance is a C&D winner who has undergone a wind operation since her sixth at Lingfield and is respected, but POP DANCER gets the vote. The eight-year-old produced another pleasing effort when second over C&D in June and is just 1lb higher, so he looks the one to beat.
