Formscan  - Saint Xavier must have a good chance sneaking into this marathon contest off bottom weight following his last-start success over 3m4f at Haydock. The much younger legs of LADY BALKO may prevail, though, as she was in really good form in handicap company prior to having an off-day when upped in class at Newbury just over a fortnight ago. Here Comes McCoy should run his usual honest race and course scorer Passing Well is another to keep an eye on.
