Formscan - BIRKENHEAD is competitively weighted and can hold sway over old rivals, Albegone (seventh) and Soul Seeker (thirteenth), who were both behind the selection when he won off this mark at York last summer. Having already proven he still has lots to offer by going in again on the all-weather on his penultimate start, the Paul Midgley-trained gelding looks the one to be with here. Mereside Angel and Caribbean Sunset both have scope and are feared most.
