Formwatch
Fatehalkhair (IRE) is a son of an Oaks winner but has proved himself a versatile performer on the Flat, hurdles and over fences. He will love this faster ground and can upset some of the more fancied runners. Jungli unseated his rider last time but had previously put up some solid performances at this trip. Lord York is the choice for lovers of bold jumping front runners and this gelding will be fitter for his recent run at Aintree.
