In depth
Formwatch
High Finale Speedy filly but appears plenty high enough in the weights at present.
Strawberry Patch (IRE) Has taken a big hike in the weights since winning over course and distance last month; more needed here.
Addo (IRE) Held by High Finale on running at Newbury last time; looks in handicapper's grip.
Artie Looked a useful performer when winning at Chester's May meeting; well treated judged by effort there (runner-up Pechara has upheld the form in nurseries recently) and if fit after absence looks the one to beat.
Algunas Veces No chance from bad draw at Beverley on latest and better judged on earlier effort behind Strawberry Patch; has claims on revised terms.
Marechal George More to do here than when landing a weak auction maiden at Catterick last time.
Mitsuki Well beaten in ultra-competitive York nursery last month; claims on earlier success at Thirsk.
In The Green Looks plenty high enough in the weights on form shown so far.
Mairi's Wedding Stable ended a long losing sequence when Tony Tie won on Monday; difficult to envisage this filly following in her stablemate's footsteps.
Flying Gem Looks nothing out of the ordinary on evidence to-date.
Hurricane Dan Had plenty of chances; looks out of his depth in this company.
Philboy Highly-tried here and may be better giving weight to lesser animals than receiving weight from good ones.
