Formscan - The hat-trick seeking Old Gregorian has proved a different proposition since having a tongue strap reapplied, with victories here and at Wetherby in recent months, and he warrants respect in his current vein of form. However, he is effectively racing off 13lb higher without Alan Doyle's 5lb claim so preference is for last season's Morebattle hero CRACKING RHAPSODY. Ewan Whillans' gelding shouldn't be judged too harshly on last month's effort in the Greatwood at Cheltenham and he holds leading claims in these calmer waters. Freddy Robinson may fare best of the remainder.
