In depth
Formwatch
Friar Tuck Hasn't won for a long time and this ground will probably not suit.
Ryefield Should handle the ground; Kevin Darley booked
Shatin Venture (IRE) Has won on soft but doesn't look to be the stable's first choice.
Pandjojoe (IRE) Handles the ground and not necessarily one to write off.
Shouf Al Badou (USA) Has handled softer conditions in the past; looks off a fair mark at present.
Infotec (IRE) Goes on the ground but not in the best of form at the moment.
Xanadu Best form is on fast ground; readily opposed here.
Nifty Major 5f specialist who is readily opposed over the longer trip.
Young Bigwig (IRE) Better known on the all-weather and not sure to appreciate the testing conditions.
Red Charger (IRE) Has won over 5f in soft before but has a long absence and an extra furlong to overcome
Live To Tell Best left alone at present.
Adamas (IRE) Trainer seems to think he's a sprinter but he hasn't shown any form over this trip before.

Piccolo Cativo Does ok in the right grade; might find this a bit too tough.
Able Ayr Going is a major concern.
Howard's Lad (IRE) Has never shown anything of note on the going.
