Formscan - Being badly hampered by a loose horse before the last proved no barrier to success for CALL ME JACK, who completed a double a shade cosily at Newcastle. A 6lb rise looks more than fair and the five-year-old is sure to prove popular in his hat-trick bid. The booking of Sam Twiston-Davies catches the eye on Arctic Lodge, who returns to timber off an attractive mark, and market support could prove significant. Bumper performances suggest that handicap debutant Boot 'n' Shoe could also play a prominent role.
