Formscan - C&D winner Betweenthesticks got his head back in front at Wolverhampton on his return and is likely to be on the premises, but the vote goes to HIDDEN VERSE. The son of Dark Angel was doing his best work at the finish when sixth at Bath and with a handy draw in stall one, along with the booking of Rossa Ryan, he could record his third career success. Speeding Bullet completes the shortlist.
