Formscan - A fairly open contest in which a tentative vote can be given to IRON LION. The son of Roaring Lion didn't appear to handle the undulations of Newmarket on his latest start, but he had been steadily progressive prior to that performance and it would come as no surprise were he to bounce back on this more conventional track. Max Mayhem is interesting back into handicap company having reached the frame in a Listed event at Deauville when last seen in December. Others to note include Divina Grace and Knightswood.
