In depth
Formwatch
West Point Justified market support when winning on debut at Catterick and looks sure to go close once again today.
After Galway (IRE) From a good jumping family but almost certain to be better for this outing.
Churchill Interesting pedigree but not one that appeals on his debut.
Liwari (IRE) Beaten favouriteon debut at Perth and then never sighted latest at haydock; stable know the time of day and any market support would be significant.
This One Is A Boy (IRE) One of the Jonjo O'Neill trained runnersand although he appears to be the stable second string he has a good pedigree and may well be in the shake-up.
Zoralo (IRE) Stable capable in these events; note and market move.
Petrea Hasn't shown much in point-to-points and is readily overlooked.
Big Star (IRE) From the family of the calssy Baron Blakeney and hails from one of the north's shrewdest yards;interesting.
Daramsan (IRE) Stable rarely score in these evnts and he may need more time.
Dyenot From a yard in top form but pedigree doesn't inspire much confidence; any market support though would be significant.
Gaucho Tackles West Point again and stable had an awesome record in these events in the past; dam was a useful bumper horse and he could well improve enough to take a hand in the finish.
Tundra Spring Stable noted for their bumper strike rate and this one is sure to come in for plenty of support in what could prove to be a decent event.
Jolika (FR) Not bred for jumping but as the Lungo yard can do little wrong at present her chance must be respected.
Byron Lamb Half-brother to decent Lord Lamb and Mr Lamb and likely to command plenty of support; could prove good enough on his debut today.
Red Brae Third O'Neill representative and the booking of A Maguire suggests he isn't totally without hope.
