Formscan - A wide-open affair in which a case can be made for many, but SWORD gets a tentative vote. He performed with enough credit in a warm Doncaster event to suggest that he can have a big say in a race like this. After shaping like the application of headgear will suit when down the field over C&D subsequently, he appeals most in first-time cheekpieces. Just behind the selection on Town Moor, English Harbour should be thereabouts with a repeat of that effort, while Kempton winner Markoon completes the shortlist on his comeback.
