Formscan - School For Scandal (first) finished narrowly ahead of JONY MAX (second) over 2m7f at Taunton recently, though there is reason to believe that the latter can reverse that form here. Christian Williams' charge is expected to benefit from the application of cheekpieces and, now 1lb better off with his rival, he gets the nod. Game Hereford winner Langley Hundred is also noteworthy.
