Formwatch
You're Agoodun Progressive form last year came to a halt at the seventh in the Grand National, had just the one outing since and showed very little. He seems better suited to these small field events and is officially the top rated performer here but his overall profile is not really convincing.
Ledgendry Line Reverts to chasing after a light campaign over hurdles last term and would be capable of a bold show on his best form. Fit from the flat and with the stable flying at present he is very much one for the list.
Murt's Man (IRE) Fair chance if putting in a clear round. he is sure to strip fitter for his reappearance run at Market Rasen last month where he was just touched off by The Last Fling after a ding dong battle to the line.
Super Tactics (IRE) Suited by going right handed and has plenty of 1's against his name. However, he is not getting any younger and he may well need to get a couple of runs under his belt.
Good Time Melody (IRE) Another who seems to need a couple of outings to hit full stride but has finished in first two in the last of five completed starts.
Lance Armstrong (IRE) Goes well fresh and should give a good account of himself on these terms. one for the list.
Gaysun Consistent type but all his best form has come on a firm surface.
