In depth
Formwatch
Crepusculaire (FR) Has struggled in his two British starts. Best watched.
F-Zero Struggled in soft conditions at Ponte last month, but was first run in 18 months. Best watched.
Bond Millennium Not tested at track and yet to win over distance. Generally thereabouts. Good eachway bet.
Scene (IRE) Not won over distance and inconsistent. Others preferred.
Miss Moselle (IRE) Plenty of experience over distance and on the upgrade. Every chance in this company.
Olenka Interesting selection of race from James Given. Not fancied.
Annadawi Course and distance winner who hasn't really got going this season.
Itsanothergirl Has found brilliant form over distance recently and appreciates sticky conditions. Major danger.
Under Construction (IRE) Lightly raced and untried over this distance.
Tommy Lorne Yet to find his feet and really poor recently.
Quizzical An encouraging performance at York last month, but untested on a soft surface.
Bold Precedent Enjoyed last outing at Pontefract, but yet to win on turf. Others preferred.
Yanus Encouraging last time out at Ayr over distance. Worth an each-way bet in this field.
Feathertime Struggled last time out, but that was 2f further than this race. Can go on the soft. Placing chance.
Positive Profile (IRE) Nothing to inspire confidence to date.
Up In Flames (IRE) Hasn't won for nearly four years, but came close at York last time out. Still got good pace for a veteran. Placing chance.
Moorlands Again Still a maiden and has not produced anything recently to suggest he will break his duck.
Stitch In Time Course and distance winner who is generally thereabouts. Good chance.
Octane (USA) Lightly-raced gelding who enjoyed a new lease of life with Mark Brisbourne. Seems to favour fast conditions. Outside chance.
