Formscan By Gary Carson - APERCU ran really well when chasing home Masoun at Down Royal last time and can step forward now. She got 3lb for that runner-up effort but there may still be scope for a bit more improvement from the Elzaam filly, who is tried in cheekpieces now. Aird obviously has to come into the mix as well, having been just a neck behind the selection last time. She also went up 3lb for that effort. It's a competitive heat with three last time out winners. Tachos, who scored at Gowran in mid-June, may be the one with most scope for further improvement.
