Formscan - Having claimed the Silver Trophy at Ripon in good style last time, Grant Wood looks primed to offer another bold bid. However, the consistent KINGS MERCHANT is fancied to go one better than his neck second over 6f at Ripon latest. Ed Bethell's charge can take this 2lb rise in his stride, while Mythical Phoenix has racked up a sequence of placed efforts and he should also be in the mix.
