Formscan - STRONG JOHNSON won twice at this time last year, including a victory over this course a distance. Paul Midgley's sprinter races off a 7lb lower mark today and recent placed efforts suggest a return to winning ways is imminent. He looks to have most to fear from recent Musselburgh runner-up Our Absent Friends, given both Ingleby Archie and High Opinion have looked in the grip of the handicapper since landing doubles during the summer.
