In depth
Formwatch
Impek (FR) Highly regarded by shrewd connections. Given too much to do on seasonal bow, then ran respectably at Cheltenham last time; has to give weight away but should still go close.
Fait Le Jojo (FR) Didn't show a great deal on Chepstow reappearance and probably has a little to find with he principals.
Got One Too (FR) Going the right way and is clearly in good form; has been set a stiff task by connections but could still have more to show us and will have his supporters.
Dick The Taxi Looks outclassed and is very hard to fancy on evidence of form shown so far.
Tikram Thrown in at the deep end on hurdling bow and will likely find this a little beyond him. ran well when a close 5th in the November Handicap and should make a fair hurdler in due course.
