In depth
Formwatch
Ballynabragget (IRE) Had problems of late but gained facile win at Lingfield and can make his presence felt.
Kings Mistral (IRE) Grand Military Gold Cup winner on first start on these shores. Was it a fluke? We'll find out today.
Millyhenry A fair pointer but likely to be outclassed.
Three Farthings had an irregular heartbeat but was still good enough to win over fences at Towcester.
Croft Court All to do on first run for 680 days.
Jack The Bear (IRE) Yet to win but has given the useful Take Control a race twice this season and looks all set to open account.
Raymond's Lad Not the easiest race to make your mark in under rules.
Team Captain Unsighted in a bumper in 1999; been in form in points but all to do.
Valman (IRE) Beaten a distance over hurdles. Not likely to figure on debut over fences.
