In depth
Formwatch
Good Time Abbey (IRE) Irish import who hasn't run for nearly two years; also lacks experience and is likely to need this run
Janglynyve Came back from an absence to finish third in a Market Rasen seller; her best form certainly gives her a chance here and she cannot be ruled out.
Big Wheel A winner of seven races, Martin Pipe's runner is bound to have his supporters.
Gayrann (FR) Beaten as favourite last time bit won a Newbury handicap the time before and a repeat of that gives him chances here.
Top Note (IRE) Would have a chance on his 1998/99 form but not much evidence of him having retained it on his return after an absence.
Mike Simmons Has only won one race, a maiden hurdle at Taunton over 2m1f on soft ground; he's not without a chance.
Weather Wise A winner of six sellers, including one here, at distances up to 3m2f; has to put two well-beaten runs behind him.
Be In Space Not the most consistent of horses and has nearly a tear's absence to overcome.
Isam Top (FR) Hasn't run well on last two starts but had seemed to be improving before that; if reverting to earlier promise then holds chances.
Major's Law (IRE) Has won eight races; is getting long in the tooth now but has dropped in the weights.
Ile de Librate Has not raced for 500 days; likely to need this run.
Baby Carrot (IRE) Lightly raced; yet to win a race.
Blackwater Bay (IRE) Not much form of late; won a maiden hurdle at Newcastle last Feb (2m,soft).
Sleeting Twice a winner but not at today's trip; absent for 108 days.
Tui Has won five times over hurdles but not since August 1999; would have needed latest run.
Keep Me In Mind (IRE) Four times a winner at Wincanton; trip and ground no problem; has an absence to overcome but is entitled to respect at this level.
Dancing Paddy A shadow of former days and hasn't won since March 1999; has won here;
Daring King Has not run for 506 days and hard to fancy today.
