Formscan - FORGE VALLEY LAD is on a tempting mark judged on the pick of his all-weather form here. David Simcock's charge hasn't shown the same form as last year, but this return 1m4f and switch to turf might just suit. Gallimimus performed with credit when second over 1m4f at Brighton earlier this month and he isn't ruled out, while Hill Station is also worthy of consideration.
