Formscan - A wide-open contest in which a chance can be taken on ZERO TOLERANCE, who may represent some value on his handicap debut for Evan Williams. His mark could prove to be a lenient one on the basis of his most recent run, which has produced two subsequent winners. Bumpy Johnson is back down in trip to 2m4f which should aid his cause following a wind operation. Another to consider in this is Turning Gold after bolting up in a selling hurdle on heavy ground at Leicester last time, but conditions are very different on this occasion.
