Formscan - Issam won this race last year and should go well in his bid to repeat the dose, but he races of an 8lb higher mark this time around and it could pay to give another chance to LAC DE CONSTANCE. He travelled well and looked a big danger when falling at the last at Uttoxeter in October, but Dan Skelton's eight-year-old may have needed that first run for 11 months and he could be hard to hold with a clear round. Course winner Investment Manager completes the shortlist.
