Formscan - NOCTE VOLATUS beat Stormy Flight (tenth) when successful in this grade at Chepstow in October and he is expected to confirm that form, despite being 5lb worse off this time around. Tom Lacey's veteran produced another good display when second in a stronger event than this at Ascot last time and he looks the one to beat. Stormy Flight put in a much better performance to fill the runner-up spot at Exeter latest and is noted. Of the remainder, Quel Destin makes the most appeal.
