Formscan - BELOW THE RADAR capped off an unbeaten first season under Rules when completing a hat-trick over 2m4f here in March. An opening mark of 123 is unlikely to be the ceiling of his ability and he may prove tough to pass up in trip. North Parade is interesting at the bottom of the weights and is taken seriously, but the main danger is Bill Baxter, who won the Topham at Aintree in 2023.
