Formscan - RARE EDITION got off the mark over hurdles in emphatic style at Worcester last time out, brushing aside his rivals to justify a short price. His half-brother, Pencilfulloflead, was a useful hurdler and, although the five-year-old may be seen to best effect over further, he can continue his ascendancy today by defying a penalty. Matchless also carries a penalty after shedding the maiden tag at the first time of asking at Newcastle and could mount a bold challenge, while Cillians Charm can follow them home.
