In depth
Formwatch
Precious Island Trip and ground should pose no problems; up 9lb for latest success.
Taarish (IRE) Has been off the track for a long time so may need this.
Melling Tends to find at least one too good; minor honours at best here.
Follow The Trend (IRE) Not the most reliable of jumpers but only 8lb higher than when successful here last month.
Iron N Gold Harshly raised 3lb for his second last time at Ludlow; was eased when beaten there though and has improvement in him.
Polyphony (USA) Well held when coming down last time and needs to improve to take a hand.
Sir Prize (IRE) Looks out of his depth in this company but is the stable number one on jockey bookings.
The Ten Amigos (IRE) Difficult to fancy, especially after falling in his last two starts.
