HALCYON DAYS has been holding his form well this season. The form of his latest victory looks strong enough and a 2lb rise in the weights is undemanding. His experience over fences enhances his prospects with the pick of his rivals still to prove themselves. The pick of these is Scooter Boy who has been prone to errors. He finished clear of a subsequent winner when chasing home Karisma King at Market Rasen. He jumped better that day but back down in trip his technique will have to be flawless. Spiculas is the pick of the chasing newcomers for a yard that do well here.
