Formscan - Sir Tivo posted a solid effort when finishing second at Uttoxeter last month and he sets the standard. That was his first run after wind surgery and he is sure to be popular. However, DECORATED has more scope at this stage and, given that he is introduced to hurdling at a modest level, he could be good value to cause a minor upset. Enthused was useful on the Flat and could be a player if turned out quickly following his fifth-placed finish when making his hurdling bow at Sedgefield on Wednesday.
