Formscan - BALTRAY improved from his first to second jumping start when an easy winner at Hereford, and the step up in trip can help him progress further as he makes his handicap debut off a workable mark. Clongowes was in command at Newton Abbot when falling at the last in May and he must enter calculations on his first run for Neil King. C&D winner Stanley Pincombe and Kansas Du Berlais are capable of being in the shake-up as well.
