In depth
Formwatch
Chicago City (IRE) Out of form of late and best watched until showing any signs of reassurgance.
Existential (FR) Maiden over hurdles who will probably be ridiculously short in the market.
Queensway (IRE) A winner earlier in the year but has now left Peter Hobbs and is hard to fancy.
Royal Event Highly-tried chaser who might find this more at his level; watch the market.
Fortius (IRE) Will probably find this trip a little on the sharp side.
Ice Cool Lad (IRE) Could shape up well after a third on seasonal reappearance.
Proper Primitive Course and distance winner but others preferred today.
Gillymoss Hard to fancy at these weights.
Gallion's Reach (IRE) Up to winning low grade handicaps but would need it a lot softer than here.
