Formscan  - BOMB SQUAD was only beaten a short-head into second over C&D last week and the eight-year-old merits the utmost respect off the same mark on this occasion. Mighty Ruler could not follow up his Lingfield success when fourth at the same venue last time but he should not be discounted. Others who make the shortlist are Amaysmont, Believe In Lies and Pessoa.
