Formscan  - Rascallion made a winning stable debut for Henrietta Knight when successful in maiden company at Wincanton. He will likely have a say in proceedings once again, despite carrying a penalty, but is conceding plenty of weight to the four-year-old NARDARAN. The latter made a promising debut over timber at Kempton before struggling in the Listed Scottish Triumph Hurdle and he gets another chance at this more suitable level. Vaguely Royal is preferred of the remainder.
