In depth
Formwatch
Inducement May just have failed to see out the trip at Stratford last time. fair form over two miles prior to that and should go close here, under ideal conditions.
Executive Decision (IRE) Only raced once in last two years, when he fell at the first! Reverts to hurdles, but at his best on very soft ground.
Barren Lands Twice a winner from seven starts last season but seems a little high in the weights now and beaten out of sight on reappearance.
Commonwealth (IRE) Has been running quite well since winning a maiden hurdle at Kelso last May.
Burundi (IRE) Off the track since February, though, and may just need this.
Kattegat Lightly raced over hurdles and fairly treated at best. Beaten a long way on all starts on the flat this season, though, and form may have deteriorated.
Noble Pasao (IRE) Stayed on strongly to claim second at Wetherby earlier this month. Obviously in good heart but this appears to be a tougher race.
