Formscan  - A competitive sprint to end proceedings, and it looks best to side with FRANK THE SPARK. Paul Midgley's charge (second) finished three-quarters of a length behind the reopposing Ganesha (winner) over C&D on his return to action recently but he's 3lb better off today and has an excellent draw breaking out of stall 10. King's Crown and Dark Kestrel have both been on the premises in recent starts and are unlikely to be far away once again.
