In depth
Formwatch
Etoile Dancer Represents a top yard but he has shown very little and others are preferred.
Highland Tracker (IRE) Has yet to win a race but this shorter may help.
Impertio Always seems to fin one or tow to good but this may be the day he breaks his duck the one to beat.
Kirkharle (IRE) Has won a maiden point but he has never raced in the mud before and others are preferred.
Nordisk Legend His best run was over 2m in the mud but that was a very poor race.
Sijujama (IRE) Looks to have regressed of late and others are preferred.
Political Mandate Still a maiden after 44 starts others preferred.
My Sweet Lord (IRE) Has only shown a modicum of ability so far and this is his chase debut.
Weejumpawud Looks the main danger to Impertio but his best form is on faster ground.
