In depth
Formwatch
Tarawan In good form at present winning at Bath earlier this month; this trip should suit and should make a bold bid today.
Lord Eurolink (IRE) Ran well when winning at Newbury last time out; raised 2lb for that success and likely to go well again today.
National Dance Current form suggests he is best watched at present and would need to improve to take this.
Duello Winner on his last outing at Brighton showed what he is capable of; has a real chance today despite his penalty.
Wilfram Returns to 1m2f following unsuccessful attempts over 1m4f; ran well over this distance back in May; each-way claims.
Missile Toe (IRE) Showed he is running well with an impressive win at Newbury last time out; winner of this race last year and sure to go close again.
Rhodamine (IRE) Last month's Nottingham victory indicates talent at this level although subsequent runs have been frustrating due to inconsistency.
For Heavens Sake Uninspiring form of late and needs to improve.
Swynford Pleasure Not without a chance if able to reproduce recent Newmarket runs winning over 1m but today's trip may not suit.
A Day On The Dub Prefers softer ground but did run well over this C&D earlier this month; others preferred but sure to give a good account of himself.
Edifice (JPN) Hard to fancy on present form; last run at Redcar did little to suggest that he will lose his maiden tag today.
Bold Amusement Good performer over C&D in the past and is sure to give a good account at the weights.
