In depth

Formwatch

Amaranth (IRE) Well suited by fast ground and showed useful turn of foot to gain narrow success in Newcastle handicap last month (now 4lb higher); Fallon an eyecatching booking and worth a chance to atone for poor effort latest.

Tom Tun Versatile character who handles all types of ground including fibresand; may just be in handicappers grip (5lb higher than previous handicap win this term).

Juwwi Grand campaigner who wins his share and makes quick reaapearance after unplaced effort in Stewards Cup; stable continue in terrific form; respected.

Kashra (IRE) Needs to step up on sole start this term after longish absence; may have had problems.

Ajwaa (IRE) Well regarded as a juvenile (entered in Middle Park) but like so many from his stable he has been slow to come to hand and disappointed on belated return; best watched with first time visors.

Up Tempo (IRE) Useful juvenile but has been struggling in handicaps this term and still needs to be dropped in weights.

Petarga Has struggled since winning weak Bath handicap in June off 4lb lower mark.

Laurel Dawn Hasn't been showing enough this term to warrant support.

Pips Magic (IRE) Comfortable winner at Doncaster last month and has been in good form since; closely matched with Juwwi on York form (6lb better for two lengths); ground/trip will suit; a leading contender.

Alpen Wolf (IRE) Well treated on pick of last year's winning form and has been knocking on the door; 2nd behind Brevity in Epsom handicap in June gives him an each-way shout.
