In depth
Formwatch
Golden Chimes (USA) Best form on fast ground; good jockey booked, each-way chance.
Clear Dawn (IRE) Course and distance winner, may prefer faster ground.
What A Wonder (IRE) In good form; loves soft ground, danger.
Jackson's Hole Fell last time out; goes on any ground, the one to beat.
Key Debate Has been running over fences, prone to mistakes; may run well at big price on first run over hurdles.
Top Saint (IRE) Ran well last time when third; looks the one to beat.
Hulla Hoop (FR) Best form with cut in the ground; may be too high in the handicap.
Son of Chaos (IRE) Ran well last time behind Direct Access; but very one-paced towards the end of his races.
Red Rampage Ran well from out the handicap last time; longer trip will suit.
Corehill Countess (IRE) Has shown very little of late; others preferred.
Needwood Spirit Needs to improve on recent runs to win this.
