In depth
Formwatch
Scarlet Pimpernel Goes very well in the mud; he has been dropped 4lb since last run and he has definite place claims.
Minivet His best form is on faster ground and he is high enough in the handicap now; others preferred.
Rudi Knight Will go on the groud he ran well last time but he has been raised in the handicap for that run.
Lawahik Has only ran on faster ground and he has a long absence to overcome; readily passed over.
Fujiyama II (FR) Loves the mud, but he has hand wind problems in the past and this course may find him out.
Kings Boy (IRE) Showed only moderate form last season and is readily passed over after a long absence.
Misconduct Will go in the ground and won well last time out but has been put up 8lb for that win.
Shampooed (IRE) Is in good form of late and will go in the ground but he must improve to win this.
Haditovski Has gone off the bpoil of late and others are preferred.
It's Wallace Will go in the ground and is well weighted but his best form is at Plumpton.
Dream of Nurmi Has his own ideas about the game and is one to avoid.
Elvis Must improve on all known form to take a hand here.
Daring News Looks to have no hope here.
