Another Chancer Fair level of form over this distance; will be suited by more rain and can go well but may find one or two too good.
Bullens Bay (IRE) Ideally suited by further; goes well fresh and is one for the shortlist in this weakish contest.
Canny Chiftane Would have chance on best of old form but has not been completing yet alone running well of late.
Courage Under Fire Can go well on his day but those days are hard to catch and is best left alone in this contest.
Fandango de Chassy (FR) Has shown ability on last three outing (two over fences); should go well but others preferred here.
Hayaain Well beaten on reappearance and then brought down last time out; chance on best of old form
Hazy Sea (IRE) Fair form in Ireland and capable of running well but long absence a worry.
Leitrim Cottage (IRE) Seems better suited by fences these days and was well beaten on hurdle reappearance last month; best avoided here.
Oxidor (IRE) Improved for step up in trip on reappearance and looks to have the best form in the race; should go very close.
Risk Advisory (IRE) Yet to recapture the form of a couple of years ago and looks out of his depth here.
Roymillon (GER) Genuine performer but one who seems happier on faster ground than he is likely to encounter here; should still run well without being good enough.
San Giorgio Has been showing improvement of late and looks capable of running into a place.
Straffan Gold (USA) Little sign of ability.
Sylcan Express Inconsistent and not to be trusted.
Mazamet (USA) General level of form looks below what is required to land this sort of contest.
