Formscan - GUSTOSO showed a big chunk of improvement when stepping up in distance to score comfortably at Hereford and a 5lb rise might prove to be on the lenient side. Henry Daly's six-year-old should have plenty more to offer and could prove hard to beat again. Solar System made it two wins from his last three starts when justifying favouritism here and he should go well again, providing his stamina holds out over this longer trip. Planet Legend is another to consider.
