Formscan - Neither HUMBLE SPARK (winner) nor Percy Willis (fifth) got a clear run when they encountered each other in a similar event over 1m2f here just after Christmas. That said, the former ran on strongly when the gaps appeared and appeals bidding to back up that hard-fought success off just 2lb higher. The class-dropping Illucidate still has low milage and, having show some improvement back on the Flat at Kempton last month, can give the selection the most to think about this time.
