Previous results
In depth
Formwatch
Soviet Flash (IRE) Capable handicapper but has a big weight and bad draw to overcome.
Blue Mountain Better than he has shown recently; faces a difficult task from low draw.
Muchea Several decent efforts in big handicaps recently; drawn to take a hand again.
Persiano Trainer's runners always worth a second look in these races and Fallon booked; solid claims but would probably want softer ground.
Big Future Has done little wrong recently but looks handicapped to the hilt.
Wannabe Around Maintaining his form well this season; has been done no favours with a low draw.
Sharp Play Winner here last year; not in the same form this season and showed no real signs of encouragement on Tuesday.
Brilliant Red Could not be better drawn, goes well here and has a nice draw; obvious claims.
Calcutta Frustrating type although has plenty of ability; draw no help here.
Riberac Has been thereabouts in recent starts; withdrawn before the start of John Smith's Cup after a long delay, but usually reliable and trainer's runners continue in form
Highland Reel Claims on best although non too consistent; booking of Kinane interesting but draw a negative.
J R Stevenson (USA) Well berthed and Eddery booked; needs to improve on recent form to take a hand.
Ferzao (IRE) Difficult to fancy on recent form but is very well berthed and has to be respected from stall 22.
Atavus In the form of his life at present; middle draw unlikely to help the hat-trick bid.
Bold King Has the worst of the draw to overcome; difficult to fancy on recent form.
Celebration Town (IRE) Back to form with second to Ice at York last time; should not be inconvenienced by faster ground.
Parisien Star (IRE) Decent effort here on Tuesday; claims if non the worse for that effort.
Little Amin Much improved this season for the switch to new trainer; better form on a softer surface.
Digital All out to win at York over seven furlongs last time; trip here not a problem but faster ground may be.
Thihn (IRE) Consistent handicapper this term but facing a stiff task at the weights now.
Analyser (IRE) Impressive when winning the Britannia (form working out well); has done little wrong since and should run his usual good race.
Hilltop Warning Failed in hat-trick bid at Newmarket last time; now looks in handicapper's grip.
