Formscan - Belgarum justified strong support in the market when opening his account in some style at Fontwell. However, an 11lb rise may be enough to prevent him from supplementing that victory and BEN BUIE edges the vote. The Martin Keighley-trained 10-year-old was far from disgraced on his reappearance, when third over an inadequate 2m at Hereford, and a return to his last winning distance may help him to get his head back in front. American Gerry and Harlem Soul are also noted.
