In depth
Formwatch
Camair Crusader (IRE) Won a similar event at Market Rasen last time under today's pilot; more today off today's weight but one for the short-list.
Diamond Crown (IRE) Ran poorly at Wetherby last time and hard to fancy on this unsuitable ground.
Barresbo Yet to win over hurdles and returned from an absence last time with a run on the Flat; should have a chance in this weak race.
Kimdaloo (IRE) Returns to hurdles after showing reasonable form in Chases; slight absence to overcome and me better over the larger obstacles.
Master Flash (IRE) Has shown nothing over hurdles so far and stable is out of form at present.
Night Fighter (GER) Chances on best form but returns from lengthy absence and will probably need the run.
Ollies Boy (IRE) Still a maiden over both types of obstacles and no show on last run; unlikely to challenge today.
Royal Arrow (USA) Has run against better opposition in the past but has fallen on last two starts; yard is out of form and best watched.
Terdad (USA) Has won against much better opposition in the past and although would prefer better ground should be hard to beat today.
Test of Loyalty Pointer who showed nothing on only previous run under Rules; hard to fancy here.
Milly The Minx No form in points or under Rules and difficult to see her winning today.
