Formscan - Although yet to race on turf, VELVET VULCAN should have no problem with the switch. The son of Nathaniel has been running well on the all-weather in recent starts and, should he handle the track, looks to hold solid claims. Roman Tempest capped off last season with a decisive C&D success and, though 6lb higher in the weights, he has few miles on the clock and should be involved. Others to note include Chinthurst and Bbob Alula.
