In depth
Formwatch
Nafith Changed hands for just 600 guineas in January, but showed fair form in this grade last summer; hard to kow just how he's fared since the move so market may provide most clues.
Kitmate (USA) Good effort at Folkestone last time and must be respected in this company; sure to be thereabouts at the finish.
Wishful Thinker Moderate form overall but did show some promise when second at Doncasterlast time although didn't look too keen; has to have things go his own way.
Better Moment (IRE) Won a Catterick seller earlier in the year and wasn't disgraced latest; however, not sure to be suited by the ground and could be found wanting.
Heathyards Element Poor performer; enough said.
Lively Felix Moderate sort although did manage to run into a place last time out and may be getting the hang of things; place prospects.
Kingfisher Gold (IRE) Poor maiden on the flat and doesn't look any better over hurdles; little to recommend him.
Ulusaba Absent for seven months since two fair efforts on better ground in similar company; comes into the reckoning on that form but hard to know how he'll handle the ground.
Martial Eagle (IRE) No show in A/W flat event latest and hadn't shown much in three outings last term; set to struggle.
Combined Venture (IRE) Poor maiden; no show on only start over hurdles.
