Formscan - Betterforeveryone bolted up by 14 lengths in a class 4 event at Doncaster in February and, despite this requiring a lot more, he could get into contention on only his fifth chase start off 7lb higher. However, preference is for MIDNIGHT OUR FRED, who finished just over four lengths clear of the third when second in this grade here over an extended 3m1f in December. The seven-year-old has shown a clear liking for the track this season and just shades the vote. Enqarde and Peejaybee are others to consider.
