Formscan - The in-form Dan Skelton is a force to be reckoned with at any time of the year, but CLARAROSE epitomises the majority of the trainer's summer jumpers in that she is open to any amount of improvement. She appears to have been well placed to back up her Warwick romp, despite an 8lb higher mark. Regal And Royal, a comfortable winner over this C&D last month, is feared most ahead of Silverbridge.
