Formscan - Having scored a shade cosily at Southwell and Cartmel last month, Haarar makes his handicap debut in this sphere off what looks a workable mark. Sam England's charge is also a potential improver upped in distance and isn't taken lightly, but the course experience of IMPERIAL DATA may prove key. The seven-year-old looked set to complete a double over C&D recently but for idling late on, and a 5lb rise in the ratings may not be enough to prevent him getting back in the winning groove. Invictus World may chase the pair home.
