In depth
Formwatch
Archon (IRE) Form in Bumpers but needs to prove he has the pace to challenge over this trip.
Sualamar (IRE) Little impression over hurdles and although faces an easier task than when out-classed last time, he still has a little to prove.
Glenburn (IRE) Open to improvement and although not the most straightforward of characters he would not have to be anything special to take this.
Ikbal Faced a difficult task on his reappearance at Newmarket back in April and is best watched after a long lay off.
Night Market Open to improvement and looks one of the more likely winners.
Tarashani (IRE) Modest form to date and looks to be his stable's second string here.
Lake Kinneret (IRE) Holds an enviable pedigree and is steadily improving, one to consider.
