Formscan - TASEVER only found one too good when trying to follow up a C&D victory in January here on Saturday and the five-year-old is clearly the one to beat once again. Streak Lightning was not far behind the selection on his most recent outing and could prove to be the main danger, although Harlem Nights and Bobby Joe Leg also merit consideration.
