Formscan - LETSBEFRANK showed further progress when upped to 1m6f at Thirsk and returning a cosy winner. This extra distance looks well within his compass, and the hat-trick beckons for Jim Goldie's four-year-old. The veteran Red Force One is enjoying a new lease of life and landed a treble courtesy of last month's Newmarket success, while Tailorman remains unexposed and is another to consider.
