In depth
Formwatch
Present Bleu (FR) Ex-French who returned to these obstacles with success at Fontwell and against some poor types can simply not be opposed.
Moon Glow (IRE) Has shown ability in the past but will need to bounce back to that form after some really disappointing efforts.
Wing Fat (IRE) Finished well behind at Fontwell and readily dismissed.
Little Bud An inconsistent performer who has had a break recently; even if putting best foot forward will struggle to beat the selection.
Arctic Burner (IRE) Formerly with Paul Nicholls and was well beaten on first run for new stable at Fontwell; best watched today.
Dolphinelle (IRE) Has actually run in some decent hurdle races on last three starts under Rules and is the one for the forecast.
Try Paris (IRE) Pulled up on last try over hurdles and has been out of form on the Flat; easily overlooked.
Twoforten Is hard to fancy back over these obstacles.
Wonderboy (IRE) Has not bee seen for some time and looks to have little hope.
