Formscan - Successful in a point-to-point over 2m back in March, LUNAR TRIX returned the impressive winner over C&D on his hurdling debut, despite showing signs of greenness. Stuart Edmunds' charge looks to have a promising future and can defy a penalty. Chicker is also penalised for his victory over 2m4f here in May, but this shorter distance is not an issue and he could prove the main danger. Fleu Du Glaye, Clondaw Buster and Riptide are hurdling debutants to note.
