Formscan - PRINCE ALEX, who was fancied for the highlight itself, can gain some compensation for missing the Chester Cup cut. Dominic Ffrench Davis' seven-year-old proved his stamina for two miles once and for all when winning with plenty up his sleeve at Newbury and a 3lb penalty shouldn't be a hindrance. Ian Williams is mob-handed in his attempt to follow up last year's victory, with 2023 Cup fourth Law Of The Sea possibly the pick. It's Good To Laugh, third in this 12 months ago, and Tony Martin's pair Hamsiyann and Alphonse Le Grande are just two more to consider.
