With the Nigel Twiston-Davies yard in good form the pair that he runs here are sure to attract attention although neither come without their question marks. Scotchtown has yet to win over fences and is going in the correct direction but he still has a quirky side to his nature. Ballymilan appears to have solved his jumping issues but the small rise in the weights could make him vulnerable. BAFANA BLUE has had his critics in the past but this C&D winner has to be considered once again while he and his yard remain in such good form. Weststreet will relish this test having won over further but may just need this to put an edge on him.
