Formscan - SCOTS POET looked better than ever when scoring with something up his sleeve at this venue on New Year's Day. The gelded son of Yeats looks capable of defying a 6lb rise in the ratings and he edges the vote over fellow last-time-out winner Coup De Coeur. The six-year-old was quite taking on his Sedgefield romp and he should remain competitive off a 7lb higher mark, while Beaumesnil likely has more to offer in retained blinkers.
