Formscan By Gary Carson - APPRECIATE IT looks nicely treated in this on his return to action. The Jeremy gelding ran a big race on his seasonal debut last season, when second in the John Durkan, and has won first time out a few times so catching him fresh may be best. Fil Dor has a run under his belt and may prove the danger. Gordon Elliott's charge stayed on into second behind Saint Sam at Clonmel three weeks ago and looks worth a shot at this distance now. Nick Rockett ran really well when third in the bet365 Gold Cup at Sandown on his final start last season and is a smart handicapper. He's another for the shortlist.
