Going - Good to Firm (Good in places). 

Formscan  - SPOT ON SOPH looked value for much more than the winning margin over C&D last month and a 3lb rise could prove especially lenient as she looks to follow up for her in-form connections. A winner of four of his last five, Dickens has been on a roll over the last few months and going back up in trip should not inconvenience him after his comfortable success in a conditional handicap at Newton Abbot recently. Isle Of Sark and Magnolia are capable of being in the shake-up as well.
