In depth
Formwatch
Blue Holly (IRE) Trainer's string in rude health; suspicion that this stiff 6f at Pontefract will be too far.
Ravishing (IRE) Disappointed when favourite last time out; looks well treated on best form and stable looks to be coming into form; draw could be better.
Puppet Play (IRE) Coming down the handicap; campaigned at 7f and has a bit to find on previous 6f performances.
Classy Act Shown improved form since reverting to this trip; best form but has been unable to reproduce all-weather form on turf
My American Beauty On a good streak at the moment; Fallon on board and has a favourite's chance here
Janiceland (IRE) First run since a long spell on the all-weather; will probably need the race here.
Sharoura Off a handy mark at present; trainer showing signs of returning to form and wouldn't surprise if landing this contest.
Boadicea The Red (IRE) Seems to go well for Clare Roche; no problems with the trip and should be thereabouts
Mammas F-C (IRE) Regular over 5f; hasn't gone over 6f for a while but has a chance if reproducing a win over Get Stuck In a few years ago
