Formscan - BASED is well bred and started to fulfil his potential with a ready success at Wolverhampton. A 6lb rise for that looks a little harsh and there is risk attached in his follow-up bid, but he still gets the nod. Rousham is surely better than he managed at Doncaster and he, along with the likes of Maynora, Popty Ping and Surgeon Commander, would need to be considered if the betting turns against the selection.
