Formscan - First Encounter must enter calculations on the back of a track victory over a mile 18 days ago, but he's yet to convince with his stamina over 1m2f. Moreover, a 1lb rise in the ratings will only make a follow-up bid more difficult for John Gallagher's charge. With that in mind, preference is for CITY ESCAPE, who arrives on the back of a solid third over this distance at Ffos Las and the seven-year-old makes plenty of appeal off an unchanged mark. Khangai boasts a similar profile and is a viable alternative.
