Formscan  - Gracchus De Balme lost little in defeat when finishing second to My Drogo in a similar event at Haydock last time out, but although respected, it is GIVEGA that shades preference. A winner between the flags on his first start for Luca Morgan before bolting up over C&D just 12 days ago, he looks sure to have more in the locker. 14-year-old Bennys King landed the corresponding event 12 months ago and last month's Warwick second would suggest he can go close again.
