          Formwatch

          Indian Spark Ran well to finish fourth in the Wokingham last week; has solid claims if that run can be repeated.

          Henry Hall (IRE) Winner of this race last year; although last time out at Epsom was disappointing; drawn well here though and is one to consider.

          Galloway Boy (IRE) Appears to be suited by a fast run 5f and ran reasonably well last time out at Royal Ascot.

          Ambitious Last run at Windsor showed promise; four time winner last year at this trip; each-way claims.

          Atlantic Viking (IRE) Useful performer at this trip; impressive victory at Ripon last week and is clearly heading in the right direction; each-way hope.

          Tadeo Running well at present; recent change of trainer appears to have brought about a change in fortunes; however the 4lb rise following latest run at York may be too much to overcome.

          Eastern Trumpeter Winner at York over this trip earlier this month; prefers firmer ground than he encountered last time out at Salisbury and is likely to go well.

          Magic Rainbow Consistent performer over 5f who has ran reasonably well over 6f this year and could go close here.

          Night Flight Likes the 5f trip but has proved to be inconsistent in recent times; others make more appeal.

          Get Stuck In (IRE) Has not been in great form of late; today's conditions don't seem to suit so is best watched.

          Brave Burt (IRE) Plenty to find on recent form; little encouragement in both outings so far this term and hard to enthuse over here.

          Ragamuffin Previous runs at Ripon and York have not shown full potential although not without a squeak if putting her best foot forward.

          Alegria Enjoys these conditions and trip; recent runs have suggested some promise but hard to fancy.

          Boanerges (IRE) Has good each-way prospects based on last outing at Ripon; has a decent draw and must be considered here.

          Connect Stable seems to be showing signs of form this year; impressive when winning at Yarmouth at the start of this month and is likely to give a good account of himself.

          John O'Groats (IRE) Previous runs over 6f suggest that this drop back to 5f may well suit; could be a lively outsider.

          Elvington Boy Has previously shown ability that would take him close here; recent runs have been encouraging and he is sure to run well here.

          Absent Friends Enjoys a fast 5f; but is likely to find this company tough; each-way claims.

          Sharp Hat Not in the best of form at present and will need to find more amongst these; hard to fancy.

          Beyond The Clouds (IRE) Ran well when recently winning at both Windsor and Beverley; has good claims amongst these despite being raised 7lb.
