In depth
Formwatch
Love's Design (IRE) Is in top form at the moment and he looks the one to beat even under this hefty burden.
Lakota Brave His best form is over further and he has a long absence to overcome.
Tumbleweed River (IRE) His best form is with cut in the ground but his stable is in good form and he could go well if he handles the surface.
Tapage (IRE) Was in good form here in the early part of the season but has been running as if in the grip of the handicapper of late.
First Venture Has been running well on the AW of late and he could run well at a fair price back over his best trip.
Petrus (IRE) Showed a modicum of ability on the turf last season is from a shrewd yard and he is one to watch in the market.
Malaah (IRE) Ran well last time out when second but he must improve again to win this.
The Gay Fox His best form is on turf with cut in the ground but he could go well if he faces up to the kick back.
Russian Fox (IRE) Has shown only a modicum of ability but he is from a top yard and the market may prove the best guide.
Amber Brown He is a course and distance winner is on a handy mark and is a danger to all if in a going mood.
Saafend Rocket (IRE) He is a course winner but his best trip is over further and he may struggle off this mark.
Scissor Ridge He is a course and distance winner but he looks to be on the down grade and others are preferred.
Daphne's Doll (IRE) Is a course and distance winner but she must improve on all known form to take a hand here off this mark.
Groesfaen Lad Is well weighted on his best form and he ran well last time and he could be the value bet in an open contest.
Kafil (USA) Must improve on last seasons form to take a hand here and he has a long absence to over come.
