In depth
Formwatch
Fred's In The Know Has been in good form this term and looks sure to put a bold show today; handles testing ground and if reproducing recent efforts must have a leading chance.
Supreme Breeze (IRE) Hasn't really progressed in recent runs and even if back to his best, might need more of a test of stamina.
Another Chance Has shown plenty of promise in three bumper races so far and should have benefitted from the experience; the market might prove the best guide to his chance today.
Chaparro Amargoso (IRE) Looks an out and out stayer in the making but has fair form to his name and not without a chance here.
Emperor Ross (IRE) Former point-to-pointer who ran creditably on his hurdles bow at Doncaster; another to have 'stayer' written all over him and might find a few too speedy today.
Giolla Valley (IRE) Looks one of the stable's lesser lights and makes little appeal.
Mayo Fair flat performer who has been given a quiet time so far in novice hurdles and might not be seen at his best until gaining handicap qualification.
Pendle Hill Moderate form overall although did run well at Wetherby last month behind Dix Bay; others make more appeal.
Columbus (IRE) Not disgraced behind smart Dibea Times latest and had previously shown plenty of guts to score at Ayr; going the right way and should be thereabouts.
Hollow Legs Going the right way in bumpers but it would still be a surprise if he were up to mixing it in this company.
