Formwatch

River Ensign will appreciate today's drop back in distance after being tried over further at Kempton last time out. Her previous second behind Bawsian was an excellent run and she should make a bold bid to make all the running today; Cancun Caribe is a live danger after winning in first-time blinkers on the all-weather last time. They are kept on today and he could make a good effort off top-weight. Westminster City has been in good form on the all-weather this winter but disappointed back on the turf at Doncaster last time. That was a competitive race and he may be worth another chance on what could be a good turf handicap mark. Paperweight is another who is fit from a winter campaign and has shown plenty of ability on this surface in the past. He is another who should be considered here.
