In depth
Formwatch
Lady Boxer In great form last term and encouragement from Haydock return. Ground and draw a worry.
Sir Ferbet (IRE) With stable's record here, lack of a run should not matter; each-way claims at least.
Willoughby's Boy (IRE) Draw, going, jockey and stable- four reasons to make him the choice.
Glenrock Course winner but doubts about the trip.
Kareeb (FR) Bit high in the weights for reappearance.
Adobe Out of form last backend but on a fair mark.
Risk Free Fit from AW but hard to fancy.
Style Dancer (IRE) Good effort at Thirsk and should be in at the finish.
Ballet Master (USA) Shock winner last time. Fallon will ensure he goes off a shorter price than he should.
Sumthinelse Fitness assured but likely to be swamped near the finish.
Jamestown Bounced back to form at Musselburgh and must not be overlooked.
Thunder Sky Tried to make all here two days ago; drop in trip and likely to try same tactics.
Peter's Imp (IRE) Ran well here last year but may need the run.
Mister Rambo Improving all the time for new stable; wide draw though.
Nomore Mr Niceguy Goes well here but has not won for some time.
Mantles Pride Went wrong last time and another with the draw to overcome.
Cryfield Form and draw say no, so why the jockey booking?
Weetman's Weigh (IRE) Fit from AW; if only the draw had been kinder; c'est la vie!
