Formscan - KALIF D'AIRY wasn't beaten far when second under Caoilin Quinn in a similar event over 2m3f at Fontwell on Boxing Day and may be able to go one place better with this drop in trip likely to be beneficial. Runaway Train was a well-held fourth in that race and would need a big step forward to reverse the form. With that in mind, Character Testing may pose a bigger threat.
