In depth
Formwatch
Bullfinch The better ground will suit and topweight unlikely to stop him reaching the frame at least.
Mister Doon (IRE) Course winner and will stay every yard of the marathon trip.
Hot To Trot (IRE) Has the ability but has not shown it lately.
Micklow Minster Not badly handicapped but needs to improve on recent form.
Tom Cobbler (IRE) Interesting in first-time blinkers.
Blasket Sound (IRE) Disappointed at Ascot but could easily bounce back in this company.
The Lady Scores (IRE) Consistent sort but would appear to be too high in the weights.
Kingsdown Trix (IRE) Bounced back to form at Fakenham and should go close despite penalty.
Gamay Beaten in claiming company last time and hard to fancy.
Haste Ye Back (IRE) Ran well at Newbury and providing he stays, should make the frame.
Mydante (IRE) Turns out quickly after good run at Kempton but has the ability to run a big race.
Bullens Bay (IRE) First run for stable; not much improvement to come at age 12.
Harbour Island Overall level of form leaves him with too much to do.
Wee Windy (IRE) Goes well here and might appreciate being back over hurdles.
Ballygriffin Lad (IRE) Pulled-up on only start this term.
Wren Warbler Out of the handicap and surely out of the frame.
Con Tricks Might just sneak a place off light weight.
Him of Praise (IRE) Not the force of old and has first outing over hurdles for five years.
