In depth
Formwatch
Fife And Drum (USA) Won penultimate start at Nottingham. Beaten latest in better company. Off top weight but with a 3lb claimer; must be considered.
Dark Society Fitted with Visor last time out, but going to have to do better than last time to threaten.
Belle d'Anjou (FR) Disappointing over this distance latest. Good winner over hurdles nad has run well on the flat, second at Chester over this trip back in June; one to consider but plenty to do at the weights.
Waseyla (IRE) Everything went her way to win latest on Good to Soft. She has won over this trip at Windsor; nicely drawn and has to be on the shortlist.
Scotish Law (IRE) Soundly beaten over 7f latest, has yet to find her ideal trip. High enough in the weights but has a 7lb claimer today; cannot be ignored.
I Tina C&D winner on penultimate start. Has since run disappointingly over shorter trip in an apprentice Handicap; must be considered today.
Bold Precedent Very moderate form, others preferred.
Sherzabad (IRE) Has won at Lingfield over 1m3.5f. Subsequent runs over extended trip respectable; has to be considered off this good weight today.
Momentous Jones A decent hurdler; this run is likely to be a sharpener so not much expected.
Dont Worry Bout Me (IRE) Had a lucky win at Brighton over 1m2f, when he was uncontested; better needed to win today.
Imari Showed an improved performance to finish third at Bath latest. May see signs of improvement over this extra distance.
Mobo-Baco Won a Selling Handicap latest, has a lot more to prove today.
Kirikou Won a seller at Warwick back in June. Has had one run for new yard in ahandicap company where he finished last; others preferred.
Bachelors Pad Some credible thirds lately, but has not won since August 2000. Unlikely to win today.
White Dove (FR) Four starts have all been at Windsor; has shown little promise.
Berzoud Won two consecutive sellers back in June; has not been able to reproduce that form since joining Handicap Comapany; likely to find others better.
