Formscan - CAWTHORNE CRACKER was well in command when falling at the last over 2m1f at Sedgefield earlier this month and with a clear round of jumping, he looks primed to return to winning ways. The five-year-old will have to defy a 9lb hike but that doesn't appear likely to halt his progression. Grifter looks the biggest danger after a decent second over 2m at Perth in September, while Balranald heads the remainder.
