Formscan - BROADWAY BOY looked a stayer worth keeping on the right side of when getting off the mark on handicap debut at Aintree in December and the galloping nature of this track will definitely play to his strengths. The form of that contest has worked out, with the runner-up and the third subsequent winners, so a 7lb rise may prove to be lenient. Farmer's Gamble has filled the runner-up spot on his last couple of starts and is likely to enter calculations, while others to consider include Aimee De Sivola and Lady Kk.
