Formscan - A few to consider in a competitive race, with CASTEL GANDOLFO getting the nod after threatening to win on multiple occasions and his rider's 7lb claim could prove to be fruitful. Previous C&D winner Stonific makes his debut for Gary Hanmer and he could be the chief threat to the selection if ready to roll on his first run in over a year. Mandocello is lightly raced and the six-year-old is another to consider.
