Formscan - LIHOU might not have been at his best in recent starts, but David Evans' charge, who landed the corresponding event off a 7lb higher mark 12 months ago, could be revitalised by the return to this track. A high draw looks to be in his favour too, and he gets the nod ahead of Glory Fighter, who pulled well clear with the runner-up when on target at Thirsk a fortnight ago. Mountain Peak rounded off last season with a couple of improved efforts at Ascot and must be considered too.
