In depth
Formwatch
King's Stride (IRE) His best form is over a shorter trip on softer ground. He won last time out at Cartmel, beating Ei Ei. He is a capable sort but conditions and his double penalty are against him.
Minster York Won impressively at Sedgefield only eight days ago. Looks to be an improving horse and conditions will suit; must be on the shortlist.
Business Class (NZ) First run over regulation fences; has been off the track (Point to Point) for 220 days; best watched on debut run for new trainer.
Fisher Street Makes his chasing debut today. His last three starts have been at this track, second to Atlantic Charter on his penultimate outing; others preferred today.
Sharp Shooter (IRE) Hurdle and Chase form is not inspiring; others preferred.
Slasher Jack (IRE) Finished last over C&D on penultimate start; makes little appeal.
Stop The Gossip (IRE) C&D winner on penultimate start but in heavy ground. Dissapointing last time out at MArket Rasen; best watched on chasing debut.
Union Wood (IRE) First run out of Ireland; shrewed trainer with good jockey booking; market best watched..
Victor Laszlo Was 30l behind Minster York last time at Sedgefield. His recent form suggests he is not improving; others preferred.
Your Punishment (IRE) If he takes to fences then should be the one to beat. Won really well at Worcester last time over 2m4f reversing the form with Noble Spy which suggests she is improving; one for the shortlist.
